A few days ago I was directed towards CrowdRise via twitter. I never heard of it but after checking it out it seemed like something I really wanted, no, needed, to be part of. It’s an online community with profiles of people trying to create awareness, get the word out and raise money for projects [...]

Finally, after searching for a very long time, I have been able to purchase TOMS shoes. Now you might wonder why it was so important to me to buy these shoes. Well for every pair they sell, they give another pair to a child who doesn’t have shoes. This might not sound like a big [...]

Generally I don’t blog about work, that’s just one of my rules. Not because I’m embarrassed about my job, not at all; I love it! But because I think it’s irrelevant what kind of work I do and where I work at. But for now I’m making an exception to this rule; albeit without mentioning [...]

Because October is NBCAM I decided to kick off this month with a post about Pink Ribbon, an organisation that raises awareness for breast cancer around the world.

Everyone who wants to have a [...]

If you thought that last week’s regular posts where just an exception you’re wrong. I had a busy weekend but I have been working on the site behind the scenes non the less. Currently I’m working on a new layout which is going to be called ‘Africa’. I got inspired for this layout after reading [...]

Most of us don’t even realize it, but when we ponder about what our dinner is going to be today we actually have a choice between hundreds of different things to eat. While others don’t have a choice, or even worse; don’t have anything to eat at all. I believe that small things can make [...]

Let’s admit it, every woman loves shoes. Generally we want pretty shoes, whether they walk comfortably or not. Some of us even buy shoes they can’t walk on, just because they want to have that specific pair ( ‘they look so nice’). I guess if we all clean out our shoe closet (or wherever you [...]
