In the last couple of weeks Pia has generously given her time and energy to help me get my own blog<\/a> up and running. I really have to thank her because I have several projects on my plate and when I think about which one I should focus on I tend to think “only both”. I am very excited to have this new space up and running, so thank you Pia for your support and enthusiasm, you are a great task master!<\/p>\n

The big trip I spoke of in my last post took me from Amsterdam to New York, LA, Colorado and Minnesota. Travelling around visiting dear friends and family in the spring is a wonderful treat, everyone is just coming out of their shells, so relieved that winter is over. I saw gardens on fire escapes and in kitchens, houses surrounded by fruit trees and window sills lined with herbs, and it made me think about my own search for green. I was raised with nature all around me. I made houses in the bushes, collected eggs and learned the hard way about bumble bees. Every spring I had to be the first one to jump in the freezing cold lake near our family cabin. Everyone else in my family has gravitated to places where forests and lakes and mountains are in their backyard. Somehow cities have called to me. Budapest, New York, San Francisco, Los Angeles, Paris, Amsterdam. I love cities. I love discovering them, peeling back the layers to find what is unique to each place. I love the energy, the pace and the confluence of cultures. In the past couple of years something has changed for me. My radar is now searching out the green spots. The vines creeping up a wall, the flowers that come through the cracks, the trees,the kitchen and botanical gardens. I find myself looking back and longing for the nature I knew as a child. I don’t know if it is growing up, or having a kid of my own but it has become increasingly important to me to have in my son’s words, “only both”…<\/p>\n
