'We could do the ghost tour now if you want?' My travel buddy Zach didn't have to ask again. We'd only been in Edinburgh for one full day, but I'd already spent most of it freaking out over how awesome it is that half the city seemed to be haunted. To say I'd begged Zach to go on a ghost tour with me wouldn't be that far from the truth. We'd spent all day hiking...
Believe it or not, but I made it to the ripe old age of 20 without ever drinking a cup of coffee. The reason for this was simple: every time I tasted the stuff, I gagged, made myself a cup of tea instead, then felt guilty for cheating on tea, one of the loves of my life. However, not too long ago I decided I wanted to give coffee a second chance. After all, everyone...
Edinburgh, the city that stole my heart in March. It left me so speechless that I'm still not sure how to start this post. Give me a second. Okay, that didn't help. I still don't know how to introduce you to the awesomeness that is Edinburgh. I spent five days in the Scottish capital and I'm just going to say it: those were the best five days of 2017 so far. There is so much...
Sadly the title of my blog post wasn't catchy enough to become the actual title of the comic book I'm obsessing over this time. Instead, they simply called it 'Deadpool vs Thanos'. Simple, yet effective. The plot isn't that simple though. Neither is the art. But let me start at the beginning. I'm going to try and explain you the plot. It's not as easy as it sounds. The nice thing about Deadpool vs Thanos...
'80% of the time I don't understand you,' my ex-boyfriend once said. Not because I was being annoying, but because he really didn't and we'd just found out why: I'm gifted, which means my IQ is somewhere between 'pretty damn high' and 'Tony Stark level genius'. Now that all sounds nice and positive, doesn't it? In a way, it is. It makes it easy for me to learn new things. I see the world in...
Sometimes you discover something cool and immediately get addicted to it. To me, that 'something cool' is street art. After taking a graffiti tour in Ljubljana, I desperately wanted to take more of these tours. Sadly we don't really have anything like it in the Netherlands, unless you're with a group. And, big surprise, me and my camera don't count as a group. So I decided to spend some time online and googled for hours...
Up until last week I only thought of very few things when I thought about Scotland: track athlete Laura Muir, Beth from Adventure and Anxiety, Louise from Louise Chatters, and Trainspotting. Occasionally I'd also think of hurdler Eilidh Child, then remember she got married and has a different name now, which gives me a headache because I can never remember her new name. So yeah, I knew basically nothing about the country I'd spend five...
