Something I have been trying to work on the last few months is not being productive. I have a really hard time with doing nothing. Right now, my goal is to have one day a month where I have no plans or to-do’s, and therefore do nothing productive. The past few months I did haven’t…
Documentary: Kiss The Ground
At this moment, we have a huge agricultural crisis in The Netherlands. It’s one of the things that made our government fall this past week. This crisis inspires me to share a documentary that I’ve seen a while ago, one that tackles the global agricultural crisis we’re in. Today I’ll tell you more about the…
You cannot call yourself an animal lover when you’re not vegan
I am not going to make myself very popular with this post. But that’s okay, most vegans are unpopular. Because we make non-vegans feel uncomfortable. I’ve had conversations where this happened. Why? Because I argue that you cannot call yourself an animal lover when you’re not vegan. Most non-vegans can call themselves a pet lover….
FairBnB: the fair alternative to AirBnB
The holiday season is coming up and that means that some of us are going to visit places outside of our home city, or maybe even outside of our country. I am one of many people who uses AirBnB for these trips. AirBnB seems to be a great alternative to a hotel, hostel or bed…
The energy transition decentralizes power
The energy transition is a necessary transition that the whole world is in right now. It means that societies are slowly switching from fossil fuels to renewable energy. Instead of heating your house by burning gas, you’ll use renewable electricity, to name one example. We need to do this to combat climate change and make…

Today I finish the series by writing about the best vegan ice-cream, yoghurt and desserts. But that does not mean…
I am a poop donor
This title may seem clickbait. Because for some people this sounds insane. However, it is 100% true. I am a poop donor. And the story gets ever crazier. People may be cured from a certain disease with my poop. I say may because I am a poop donor in a scientific research program. Today I…
Why I never light candles
A few years ago I decided to stop lighting candles. At the time, candles were one of the few things that I would still buy new something. I love the smell of some candles, even when they’re not burning. And honestly, there are some pretty beautiful candles available. Aesthetically, they can really make your home…
