Now that I have a full-time job, I have more money than I ever had in my life. I am so privileged that I have a stable income. In this phase of life, most people use that money to buy expensive things for themselves, a car, a house, phones, etc. Most people adapt their lifestyle…
Category: Inspiration
Inspiration and learning new things is crucial to me. I get inspiration from books, documentaries, films, organizations, etcetera. These media forms teach me how to see the world and how to be a better person every single day. I find is highly important to be aware of certain problems and how I relate to them. In this category I put all those resources together for you. This way you can always find relevant inspiration here.
I write separate blogposts about individual books, documentaries, podcasts and more. However, I’ve also created an ultimate list of all those things combined. This way you can take a quick look at which books, documentaries etc. I recommend on a specific subject. That list is a never-ending project.
Finding Vegan Restaurants: HappyCow
Past Monday I came back from my holiday. I traveled to Budapest with my partner and two friends (the coming weeks I’ll tell you more about the traveling itself). Today I want to talk about another sustainability aspect while on the road: vegan food. I personally find the Netherlands a walhalla for vegan food (but…
Documentary: 13th
I have always been fascinated by incarceration. Locking people up in small areas, sometimes for their entire life. Why? How? This fascination even led me to do my internship in a Dutch prison back in 2017. I then saw everything from up front. I don’t know if I still would choose the same internship now…
4 Podcast Tips – May 2022
It’s May again. And apparently, that means that I share some podcast tips on this blog. I’ve been looking into my archive and I noticed that I shared podcast tips in May 2020 and May 2021 (and once in November 2021, but I’ll just ignore that off day haha). Now that it’s May 2022 I’ll…
Documentary: Crip Camp
Last week was the first time I wrote about a certain type of discrimination: ableism. I wrote that post to introduce the subject to you, because I feel that everybody should know what ableism is. From there on, we can learn more about it. That’s why I am sharing a documentary concerning ableism with you…
Series: POSE
It’s been a while, but today I am sharing a must watch with you again. A series I’ve been hooked on from the very beginning, but which has ended recently. I am bummed that the series has come to an ending, I want more. I am sharing the series today because it’s simply amazing, but…
Sustainable hotspots in Amsterdam
I moved to Amsterdam in September 2021 and have been living here for about 6 months now. I love Amsterdam and everything it has to offer. If the area was not so polluted due to Schiphol and Tata Steel I would even consider living here all my life. Amsterdam is modern, that’s why it has…
Vegan Pumpkin Soup Recipe
I’ve noticed that a lot of people still struggle to make vegan recipes for dinner. Now that I have been vegan for more than 4 years, I find it hard to recognize this struggle. For me personally, making any recipe vegan is not hard at all. Also, after all this time I know where to…
Destroying CO2 with Carbon Killer
I hear a lot of people around me complaining about the role of industry in this climate crisis. Why should we individuals change when industry just keeps on polluting? Earlier I wrote a post on why we shouldn’t think like that and that we all have a role in this crisis. But even if you…
DIY Zero Waste Hairspray
I am a woman with long hair. And oh my, that can be a struggle. It rarely shapes exactly the way you want it too. Too loose, too tight, bumps here, bumps there. I guess it will be an endless struggle. There is however one thing that makes it easier for me: hairspray. But over…
