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.

…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.

…ratures. But I’m happy about it. We had a good summer and it feels only right to have a change of season now. I’m happily thinking about all the goodness fall is bringing: yellow leaves and foggy mornings, hazy afternoons, hot teas and soups, pies eaten by candlelight in cosy evenings. Let the autumn begin!

…oll aimlessly for a while, before the meeting, noticing the first signs of autumn. It was the time before sunset, a peaceful and warm atmosphere, and I wasn’t in a hurry. I had a little moment of mindfulness, taking my time to observe the spiders hanging on their webs, the rose hips and the beautiful waxy fruits of a carob tree.

Another day off, another day-trip. This time, to the charming city of Utrecht, which I absolutely love. I enjoyed strolling around the cosy streets, walking alongside the Oudegracht (Old Canal) and perusing the little antiques&curiosa shops. Utrecht looks gorgeous in fall colours — the old trees bordering the canals shed their rusty leaves on the ground, the fluffy clouds give the city a dramatic look and you can walk around in awe without being…

…ards Bergen aan Zee. It’s a great place for a walk in any season, but this autumn I’ve seen it at its best. Fall of 2022, with its warm days enveloped in golden light from the generous sun, was a proper autumn season, although atypical for the Netherlands. I enjoyed it thoroughly and I am ready for the winter now. Before that, let’s just take one more look at the colours. Enjoy this virtual walk and let me know how you enjoyed autumn this year. St…

The Hague (or Den Haag in Dutch) is a city located on the North Sea, in the South-Holland province. It serves as the seat of the Dutch parliament and government, as well as the King’s residence. For tourists, there are a few important landmarks to visit, but I think The Hague is mostly a great city to live in. It feels more relaxed than Amsterdam, with a more residential atmosphere. It’s an elegant city, full of beautiful buildings, leafy streets…
