my summer reads ☼

Let's talk about books!! On goodreads I set myself a challenge: read 19 books in 2019. That's never going to happen in the last 4 months, because so far I've only read 8 books. The goal a way to stimulate myself to read more often, so I'll just try to get as far as possible. This summer I read three books - three really different books - that I wanted to give a little review on! 

september softness

with september in mind
I think of
the lingering of summer on skins
the soft touch of autumn
pastel blue skies
the evenings that become shorter
filled pages with notes
the back to school season begun
pen on the back of my hand
freckles and
rain

I think of
september softness

time for a (little) change!

Hi everyone!

Just a quick little announcement... I've decided to start posting in English! It was time for a little change. Just something to make me fall in love with blogging even more. I love the English language and think it will be a great way to practice writing. If you want to translate my posts to another language, you can find the translate button in the bar on the right! Other than that not much will change here... I hope I can provide more content of the things I love and share them with you. Blogging is one of my favourite hobbies and I'd kind of forgotten that the past few months. But if you see me writing in Dutch again in a couple of weeks ignore this post! Then this experiment might have failed... 

See you soon!

love,

Eva

redang & melaka // the malaysia diaries pt. 4

Redang leek wel een droom. We stapten van de ene boot naar de ander, met het klotsende blauwe water onder mijn voeten. De kleur van het water. Ongelofelijk mooi. En zo helder! Zo had ik het nog nooit gezien. Toen we weggingen was ik nog steeds niet gewend aan de kleur. Met een andere boot werden we afgezet op het strand. Onze voeten raakten het witte zand aan en ik werd niet alleen verblind door de weerkaatsing van de zon, maar door de schoonheid van het eiland. Ik moest mezelf even knijpen. Ja, dit was echt.
