Time goes by so quickly! Its already May! May is my favourite month in Europe. Everything is super lush and juicy green. Just looking out the window at the trees is instant stress relief. My challenge this month has to do with celebrating the beauty. By cleaning up. This month I challenge you to pick…
Hello lovely people! This month, I have a challenge that is also still a challenge for me, rather than already a habit. This month I challenge you to buy only package-free! I find this hard. Especially after a long day at work it is much easier to stop at the supermarket on the way, rather…

This month, I challenge you to do something that you possibly already do: Use a keep cup. Keep cups are replacements for the single-use to-go cups made from waxed paper or plastic.
