Our story with Mádara started pretty randomly. My husband in his young thirties needed a good hydrating cream as his skin was quite dry. We were looking for something organic and vegan, so the sales lady in Müller directed us to this brand. She specifically advised him this Smart one: with a deeply hydrating formula. …
This post doesn’t need an intro as the title says it all. Most of the songs on the list are rock, those I like to call “midnight rock”, others are random genres. Some even have kinky lyrics, but that’s not factor that makes them sexy. I can’t really explain, what it is, there’s just something …
Sometimes, with too much time on our hands, we get lost on YouTube. Sounds familiar? 😉 In my case, I “waste” my time on, among others, some beauty and fashion vlogs (even environmentalists fall for the cute things, guilty). The ones I come across are pretty likeable and relaxing with occasionally some good advice. What …
First of all, dolphins do sleep, but it’s not the type of sleep land mammals have. Dolphins are conscious breathers, which means they have to think about when to go up to the surface and take a breath.

Dolphins keep a complex social network which includes a few close associates (such as mothers and calves or pair-bonded individuals) and some more casual relationships within a larger group. Dolphins hunt together for food, pods coordinate their movements to herd prey. They have a very acute sense of hearing which they use to communicate with …
This post was inspired by the book How to be Parisian wherever you are. I could start with the proverb: Always be yourself, there’s enough of everyone else already. It’s somewhat cliché, but it exists for a reason. It’s so much effort trying to be something or someone we’re really not and it doesn’t get …
There is so much work to be done in this world. And it’s always the right time to start – with the thing that motivates us the most, where we can and want to put our effort in. I participated as a volunteer at a marine mammal society for cetacean conservation and research for a …
