It's cold in Holland now. It seems the summer has ended and I have to admit I'm not ready for a cold winter yet. I actually hate winter time. So today we travel to Cyprus where the sun is almost always shining. This is Almyra Hotel. What do you think about this place?

SNEAK PREVIEW: IKEA X-MAS COLLECTION

Good Morning friends! How are you? Do you realize that it's X-Mas in 2 months from now? It's amazing how time flies. While searching for new inspiration for the blog I stumbled upon these cute X-Mas items from IKEA. I guess red is their favourite color this season. I haven't spotted any trends yet but I'm sure there will be loads to talk about in the next few weeks. I just love this simple red X-Mas tree from IKEA as shown above. Can't wait to start collecting some new items this year.

UNFORGETTABLE PLACES ON EARTH

Today I've stumbled upon an amazing website and I wish I knew about this much earlier because it's just brilliant. That's why I love to share this with you. Welcome Beyond Handpick Paradise is a website with truly amazing boutique hotels and B&B's. My earlier post about the B&B in Belgium is mentioned on this website too and they so deserve it!! Today I take you to a wonderful place up north west in Norway. I love this countries nature although I've never been there before. The Juvet Landscape hotel is a beauty surrounded by nature. The Norwegian owner Knut started this hotel in 1994 with help from the government he realised his dream hotel. The owner wants his guests to remember the hotel like this:

— Knut: “I would love our guests to have a feeling that this is a fantastic place, that they had been visiting friends and that they had a very, very nice time. And that I am sorry that they had to pay for it.”

Do I need to say more?

JUST AROUND THE CORNER

It's Wednesday already, wow this week is rushing out of my hands...Do you know that feeling. I had a very busy week working on different projects for my new business. In addition I started the first talks with sponsors for the next Meet the Blogger event in Amsterdam. So exiting! I also planned a trip to Barcelona in January 2011 but I can't give you the details yet as this will be a surprise for my loved one sssst...;-) But if you have any tips for Barcelona you are more than welcom to share them here.

Back to reality. Today I came across a wonderful place, a B&B in Belgium. As you are a frequent reader of this blog you might have noticed that I'm crushed on Belgium and it is so close from Rotterdam where I live. You can even stay there for  one or two nights and have a wonderful holiday feeling. This old shipyard is definitely a blast! The B&B Tielrode is part of an art galery by jewelry designer Sophie Lachaart and painter Luc d'Hanis. The decoration is minimalistic with great a eye for design. I would love to spent one or more nights in this beautiful place. Who knows one day...
