Cultural Events I’m Looking Forward to This Autumn (2018)

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…

A perfect autumn day

Posted by Dana Marin | Oct 15, 2017 | All Photos, Amsterdam

…Finally one warm weekend! A proper Indian summer that everyone tried to enjoy as much as possible. I was out and about today, admiring the autumn colours and soaking up some long-awaited sun. The walk involved coffee in the sun, the best cookies in town at Van Stapele Koekmakerij, visits to a few art galleries in the Spiegelkwartier and cheering up the runners at the marathon that took place in Amsterdam today. A perfect day 🙂…

One autumn day in Antwerp

…inter, so I accepted immediately. I was curious what it would look like in autumnal colours, not to mention I really liked the city and all the chocolate it had to offer. It was raining as we left Amsterdam and it felt like one of those grey days when everything is surrounded by clouds so dark that it’s almost night-time. The same weather was waiting for us in Antwerp. When we went out of the beautiful train station, we walked towards the city cen…

Moody Autumn Day in Amsterdam

Posted by Dana Marin | Oct 11, 2020 | All Photos, Amsterdam

Autumn has arrived, and the weather is as moody as it gets here in the Netherlands. All we can do is make the best out of it: stealing a few moments in the sun before running for shelter when the rain starts pouring, going to the market to get fresh produce, visiting friends for a cosy afternoon indoors listening to the sound of rain. I am still waiting for the sunny, golden days that make this season so beautiful; maybe October still has some pl…

Autumn Mood

Posted by Dana Marin | Oct 9, 2018 | All Photos, Amsterdam

I declare the autumn mood officially installed. The colours of the city are changing from one day to the other, the mornings are foggy and I can tell how far into the season we are by the number of leaves in the tree in front of my window. It’s time for early morning walks, colourful sunsets and a lot of rain. For candles and warm chocolate, cosy evenings and piles of books.

Amsterdam Neighbourhoods: an Autumn Day in Stadionbuurt

Posted by Dana Marin | Nov 9, 2019 | All Photos, Amsterdam

…lk in the hope I will burn some of the calories and to enjoy the beautiful autumn day. There is a certain beauty to Amsterdam Zuid neighbourhoods, a homey feeling; they bring the joy of non-instagramable places where you can walk and admire regular shops, boats and canals, Amsterdam School architecture, geese on a canal side and a child ruffling through the fallen leaves.
