Autumn Vibes and Dreaming of a Different Life

Posted by Dana Marin | Oct 1, 2021 | All Photos, Thoughts

…ng under my feet, the days are shorter and the air feels cooler. Yes, it’s autumn and nobody can deny it! Weather-wise, this September has been a beautiful autumn month. It has been also a month of questioning, worries and dreaming of changes, for me. I took a break from my blogging activities to focus on writing. I’ve made a minuscule progress on my book, but it’s still something that makes me happy. I’ve written more poems and even sent one to a…

…It’s that time of the year again: each morning, when I get out of the house, I wonder what shade of autumn colours I’ll see that day. Autumn is just beautiful. Does it rain in the Netherlands in autumn? Yes, it does. But when the rain stops… oh boy! The city is absolutely amazing! If you need one more reason to visit Amsterdam in autumn, here it is:…

…ed these days, I would say that autumn is here! It seems that summer passed by very quickly, sneaking around on us, fooling us with just a few warm, sunny days… People are still craving for some sun, for wearing short-sleeved t-shirts — but here it is: majestic Autumn has arrived! Anyway, the end of September was like the summer that never graced us with it’s warmth this year — really great weather, warm and nice outside, if it weren’t for the yel…

Photo Session on a Cold Autumn Day

Autumn in Amsterdam is really beautiful, and, if you’re lucky, there will be some gorgeous sunny days to enjoy the autumn colours. Perfect for a photo session on the beautiful canals of Amsterdam! But there will be some freezing or rainy days as well. On the day of the photo shoot I arranged with Tea, the weather gods sent us a taste of the winter temperatures. Happy there was no rain, we went on with our plans, but the cold made our work pretty…

Autumn Colours As Therapy: Amsterdam Streets Covered in Yellow

…ty centre. Little did we know that we will find one of the best shows that autumn can offer. There’s a small time frame when you can see a good ratio of yellow leaves on the trees as well on the streets, before they fall off and get blown away by the diligent people hired by the municipality to clean the city. We managed to get that exact moment and it was amazing! The colour display that autumn prepared was so beautiful that it took our breath aw…

Beautiful autumn in Amsterdam

Posted by Dana Marin | Nov 19, 2016 | All Photos, Amsterdam

This year I had the feeling that the autumn lasted longer than usual. Or that I had more time to contemplate its beauty, to observe the subtle changes in the colours from one day to another. Amsterdam is very beautiful in autumn, it’s like a constantly changing painting. The past few days were rainy and most of the trees will soon shed all their leaves, leaving behind a colourless scenery, so I’m trying to enjoy the yellows as long as I can. Thes…

Posted by Dana Marin | Sep 5, 2018 | All Photos, Culture and Events

As the autumn is settling in, the relaxed pace of summer days seems to dissipate, giving way to a few very busy months for me. In between more or less pleasant work, many events taking place in Amsterdam filled the (virtual) pages of my agenda. I am very excited about this great collection of events, so I thought I should share it — maybe it will inspire some of you. Here it is, my list for this autumn, neatly arranged in categories: Festivals an…

Forest Walks and Doing an Autumn Cleaning for My Mind

Posted by Dana Marin | Oct 28, 2022 | All Photos, Photo essays, Thoughts

…e for me. It’s the best meditation I get: walking around, breathing in the autumn air, with all the wonderful scents, focusing on leaves changing colour and mushrooms growing, is clearing my thoughts and brings me in a peaceful state. I’ve been very busy in the past months, building my business and trying to figure out the right path for it, and I was swamped under all the work, forgetting about my well-being for a while. It’s a common thing for f…
