Weekend In Amsterdam With Mariska Meijers

Happy Monday everyone! Busy few weeks over here as the team and I at Heart Home magazine are very busy putting issue 2 together. Only two and a half weeks left before it goes live on December 8th! I cannot wait, it's looking fabulous and I am not being biased, promise ;)

This weekend Carole and I spent it in Amsterdam where we are covering a feature with the talented and amazing artist Mariska Meijers. We had an amazing time with this generous and kind spirited woman. We also got to know the talented Wouter Van Ierssel who was our photographer on location. Also a big thank you to The College Hotel for accommodating us at their beautiful hotel! Thank you all for making this a fun and memorable weekend. 

More shall be revealed in the upcoming issue of Heart Home Magazine of what we got up to ;)

Amsterdam: Van Holland House

We were lucky enough to find a lovely Bed and Breakfast for our weekend in Amsterdam. What's even more funny was that my husband had booked this lovely place not knowing where the Meet The Blogger event was being held. Well it must have been fate because I was literally across the road from it. We stayed in this charming luxury B&B called Van Holland House. It was so pretty, stylishly decorated, clean, great breakfast and the guy who owned it was the sweetest man ever. So here are a few images of where we stayed, we truly had a lovely time in Amsterdam and this was probably one of the reasons as to why. If you ever are looking for a great place to stay at reasonable prices and bang in the centre of the city then definitely take note of this place. I just cant wait to go back...

Fun Times At Meet The Blogger

Yay I'm back after an incredible and fun weekend in Amsterdam! Sorry if I disappeared for a few days but last week I was so busy with Heart Home Magazine and then Friday I flew out to Amsterdam for a nice weekend break. I got up to so many exciting things but obviously one of my main highlights was attending the Meet The Blogger Event on Saturday. Wow is what I can say, I am still buzzing from all the inspiring people I met. It was great to see old and new faces and mingle with people that share the same passion as you do - yes we are all mad bloggers but we love it ;)

I was so happy to see Holly again who gave such a heart felt speech which gave us a lot to smile about. Chatting with Decorate's co-author, Joanna copestick was also a real pleasure. There were many laughs with fellow bloggers and I genuinely had so much fun. I am so excited to have made more online friends, it's what makes blogging all about! I can't wait for the next bloggers meet up, apparently Berlin may be the destination! Now that I cannot wait!

Amsterdam was a pretty inspiring place and I have so many more goodies to share with you the next few days, I just cannot wait!

A big thank you to Lise from Urban Style Vibes for organising such a wonderful event! More details of Meet The Blogger can be found at Heart Home Magazine. There is also a great post from Holly that sums up the event magically!
