Yup, that’s me. You might be wondering how I ended up in this situation. I guess you’ll have to watch the video and read my full β€œMeet the Team” interview on the link ⬇️ πŸ€ͺ

There’s nerve and then there’s trying to cut the queue at Action on a Saturday.

It says a lot about the state of your country when you end up apologising to the photo of one candidate and telling the photo of another β€œDo NOT fuck this up” while putting a cross on the ballot.

Woke up at the crack of dawn to go to my 8am ballet class only to find out that class has been cancelled for today.

I guess the four flights of stairs up and down will count as exercise.

'I like to read the city': Meet the expat walking every street in Brussels Expat Manuel Schmitz has walked every street in Brussels, meticulously marking his path with a red pen on a paper map.

Reading about my former university teacher having walked every single street in Brussels was not on my Sunday bingo card!

(But also: @brusselstimes.com let’s please retire the word β€œexpat”. We are all immigrants, period. Nothing to be ashamed of ❀️)

Did you know we have enough clothes right now to dress the next 6 generations?

Let’s do more with what we already have, instead of chasing the next fad.

First step: be more mindful of what we produce (and then consume). Is it really needed? If not, then why are we creating it in the first place? πŸ€”

Halfway through #Yellowjackets S3 and I really have to give kudos to Sophie NΓ©lisse. I cannot watch teen Shauna anymore without feeling an uncontrollable urge to either slap her or throw her in jail without possibility of parole.

Having to come to the EU neighbourhood in the middle of a national strike is like pulling teeth out with no anaesthesia.

Surprised you remember that but not the Dunkirk beach scene filmed in one shot. Brings me to tears every single time.

Do you need the others too?

Clearly Clementine in ESOTSM. β€œI’m just a girl looking for her own peace of mind. Don’t assign me yours.”

And I am the entire soundtrack of Atonement because any Wright-Marianelli collaboration is phenomenal but this one is the best of all.

A mix between whoever’s the most sarcastic (though choice) and Melanie Laurent’s badassery. Plus a bit of Landa since I speak multiple languages

It’s Bluesky, not that many characters 🀣 but i love the whole movie from the animation to the soundtrack to the sassy villain, so the whole movie is me tbh.

What does 1T of second-hand clothes look like? πŸ‘—β›°οΈ

This morning, social enterprises unloaded a small mountain of second-hand textiles in front of the EP to call for action to protect the #reuse market from being destroyed by fast fashion.

Put #SecondhandFirst – read the open letter πŸ‘‡
