Last summer we were in India. And in the midst of all the overwhelming and colorful bustle of Delhi we found a haven of serenity. Good Earth is a shop and café situated at Kahn market. The owner believes that true luxury is in the detail of everyday living. It is in being surrounded by pure and natural materials that have been handcrafted and thoughtfully designed. Sigh…
Make sure when you plan a shoppingroute in Antwerp (sale has already started)to include Berlin. This brasserie has a great urban feel to it and serves the best daily’s in town.
After a few months travelling Australia in a little campervan we craved for some luxury in Sydney. We found it in a quirky boutique hotel Altamont in the great neighbourhood Darlinghurst. Packed with cosy café’s and restaurants. And what a treat it was to have Govinda’s, a movietheatre where you can watch movies lying on gigantic cushions, right next door. The ultimate luxury was getting a haircut at hip and happening hairdressers Sas and Lou!
A few years ago we made a trip around the world which we ended - totally relaxed - at Isla Mujeres in Mexico. It’s a little island surrounded by turquoise water in the bay of Cancun. Absolutely laid-back with a bit of a hippy-feeling. Our favorite breakfast/coffee café was Elements of the islands. A little oasis with healthy food, yogaclasses on the rooftop and earthly decorated apartments for rent. The kind of place that you remember back in Holland on a rainy monday morning…
