Slow Moments in Fast Living We have a very fast-paced lifestyle in London. I guess that would be the case for anyone living in most major cities. For me, slowing down in the city is to stop and appreciate the beauty around you, even if it is for a minute, being mindful of that moment and of that place. There is no slow living in my life, but there are more slow living moments that I have come to appreciate. It could be reading a great book, discovering hidden corners in a city, lying in the park, walking on the beach or just simply enjoying my morning coffee.
Floral Favorites I love orchids for their elegance, I love peonies for their romance, I love roses for what they represent, I love hydrangeas for happy memories (we used them at our wedding), I love tulips for their colors and shape, I love wisteria as they can truly transform a dull place and I love cherry pink blossoms as they brighten up your mood instantly.
Any Photo Tips/Apps You Love? I mainly use my iPhone to take pictures, as you never know what will inspire you and when. The most important thing is to find a theme that makes you happy and somehow that will come out in your photos. I tend to be on the run most of the time and take a lot of pictures from all kinds of angles of the same place just in case I missed something. At the end, I usually end up using the most obvious and simplest version. I recently started using the Unfold app to create my stories, and I love it. It is very simple to use and it allows you to be creative with your stories in a very aesthetic way.
