As I have a personal challenge currently, I decided to power down HP and withdraw HBD. It doesn't mean I don't like Hive anymore. Since Stxxxit time back in 2016, Hive is my home in the crypto world. I

The other day, I went with my daughter to a workshop “Skate of Art,” which she had wanted to join for quite a while. It was a “Let’s paint a skateboard!” workshop organized by a skateboard community in

A few days ago, our washing machine broke. We bought it new last autumn that means it's less than one year old 😢 The cause may have been a small coin left in my daughter’s pocket. Somehow, the coin got

This week made me think about what really matters in life. In my handwritten notebook, I sometimes write innocent little wishes like “I want a Jeep” or “I want an office.” But maybe the most important

My daughter came home from school and showed me a book she had found on the way. “It’s a pudding book!” As we flipped through the pages together, I realized that this was not the wobbly custard pudding

I took a one-night escape to Meissen while we had guests staying at home. My partner had guests, his friend from childhood and her son. Our home is definitely too small. And even there is not enough mattresses

Recently, I've used up most of filaments I bought with the my 3D printer, so I finally decided to try something I had been curious about for a long time: glow-in-the-dark PLA filament! And it turned out

I love wide, slightly bold hairbands that lift my mood when I’m doing housework, working, or making things. It is not easy to find one with good material (cotton or rayon) with eye catching print. So whenever

Last weekend, we had run out of bread, and I wanted to make an easy lunch, so I baked pizza and bread at the same time. I thought this was such a useful little trick to know, so I decided to write it down

Temperatures in Germany have been reaching the high mid 20s recently, so it still feels warm, even hot, during the day. But mornings and evenings are already chilly enough that I want to put on long sleeves.

Have you ever used melon in a savory salad? For me, it was a first! I first tried it at a team lunch at a makerspace in Augustusburg, a small town in Saxony where I have visiting for prototyping and hosting

This summer, I was away from home for an artist residency. There was no oven where I was staying, so instead of baking bread myself, I enjoyed bread from local bakeries and the dense, seed-packed loaves

I use my hands a lot for making things, cooking, and gardening, so they tend to get quite rough especially in autumn and winter. I often have little cuts here and there, and once the skin around my fingertips

I spent much of this summer taking part in a residency program, so my balcony, garden, and Hive have been a little neglected. This week, I’m finally settling back into life at home. On my way back from

For the past month, I have been taking part in an artist residency in a town about three to four hours away from home by public transport. I came back home from time to time, and whenever I only needed

I am currently taking part in a woodworking residency for a month in Seiffen, a village in eastern Germany known for woodworking and wooden toys. At the beginning of the residency, I used a wood lathe

I am currently taking part in an artist residency program, so I did not have many opportunities to visit my garden in July. When I finally went back last weekend, I was relieved to find that the plants

One of my little dreams came true today. It's morning yoga outside! For the past few years, morning yoga has been part of my daily routine. I always imagined that one day, when I finally lived somewhere

Since the beginning of this month, I've been taking part in a one-month residency program at Denkstatt, a woodworking studio in Seiffen, Saxony, Germany, a town well known for its wooden toys and woodworking.

I’m spending this summer at an artist residency in Seiffen, a toy-making village in Germany. The workshop is full of beautiful wood offcuts. As part of learning more about different wood species, I decided
