We live in a tiny home on wheels. Energy to charge our devices is generated by the sun. All our water is harvested from the rain that falls on the roof. We warm ourselves by the fire of a rocket stove. We don’t eat animals. We have bad WiFi. It may sound drastically and extreme.…

Yesterday, the first day of December, felt quite unreal to me. Firstly, because it’s the last month of 2019 before another year (and decade!) will start, a year with some big changes ahead, both at an individual and a collective level.

I prefer to see the good in perhaps not the best experiences and in people who have shown their true colors.

Yesterday I have been to a beach clean initiated by an English DJ called Blondish who uses her fame to raise awareness about the huge plastic pollution which we are facing everywhere with her “Bye Bye Plastic Life” project. It took place during the International Music Summit, a-three-day electronic music conference on Ibiza where famous house and techno DJ’s, such as Nicole Moudaber and Adam Beyer (Awakenings!), and clubs come together to discuss issues and developments in the industry.

We made it! We are here, in our tiny house “Wild West Wagon” built by Dorus! I totally underestimated this process of moving house..the stuff..to decide to keep things or not. It was more work than I expected it to be. The good thing was that I felt completely ready to start this new adventure…

I’m here for a longer time than I have ever lived in Amsterdam. I didn’t realise this until a few days ago. These are our last weeks in this small coastal village in the West. Yesterday afternoon a couple came to see the apartment. They probably will be the lucky tenants after us, happy as…
