About me


Hi! I'm so pleased you are here!

I am Suzanne, a 24 year old from the Netherlands. 

I've loved writing ever since I was a little girl, I always had a writing project on the go. Crafting my own little magazines, making up my own songs, writing a book over e-mail with my cousin: I cannot remember a time that I wasn't writing in some way shape or form. 

When I got older, I decided to study communications but the curriculum had entirely too little writing included for my taste!! After dealing with a couple health related set backs, I am now rediscovering what I am really passionate about. Leading to, among other things, this blog you've somehow stumbled upon!

I've been known to be a big consumer of tv-shows and podcasts and I'm always keen to give people personal recommendations, so that's where I started on my blog as well! Since then, I've been branching out occasionally, writing about whatever has caught my attention recently!

My interest include (but are absolutely in no way limited to): crochet, investigative podcasts, feelgood/history/sci-fi books, history (post 1600), slow living, cooking (I'm an aspiring vegetarian), Taylor Swift, volleyball, football, gardening, plants, scrapbooking, art, museums and poetry. 

I hope my blog is a place where you can discover new cosy, inspiring, interesting and exciting things and ideas.

Limited Investigative Podcasts (No Murders)

I'm a big fan of true crime podcasts. I get into a story and listen to a whole season within a day. Interesting cases, interesting interviews, I can hardly get enough! But, there are days where I want someone to tell me a riveting story where no one dies. Maybe you do too? Maybe you can't stomach gnarly details of a murdercase, but you still like riveting storytelling? I got you! Here are my favorite, serial, non-murder, podcasts! Essentially these are all limited documentary podcasts, with an investigative or journalism format. But, enough with technicallities, here is my list! 1. The Dream season 1 (Little everywhere & Witness Docs) Tagwords: Multi Level Marketing, personal investigation, small town America I'll start with the one that i nspired me to make this post. I'm currently listening to season one, which is about multi-level marketing (also called MLM's, not to be confused by men loving men). This podcast has plenty of interesting characters that are ...

TV-Shows with the Ultimate Fall Vibes

Autumn has become my favorite season the last couple of years. Nothing more comforting than a cosy blanket, cup of sweet tea and a good heartwarming show! So today I'll share my favorite TV-shows to watch during fall! Want to save or share this list on Pinterest? Here is a picture! 1. Gilmore Girls Great if you: - Don't want anything spooky - Want several seasons to binge - Love the early 2000's vibes - Enjoy character driven shows No fall TV-show list is complete without Gilmore Girls! The original Fall TV-show about a mother and daughter trying to find their way in a little cosy town called Stars Hallow. Warning: may come with a coffee addiction. If you don't already have one! The early seasons of Gilmore Girls are especially great if you are a student, as Rory is very academically driven and may be a great motivator to study more! 2. Buffy the Vampire Slayer Great if you: - Want something spooky yet funny - Want several seasons to b...

Short TV Shows and Mini-Series to Binge-Watch in a Single Weekend

As an introvert, one of my favorite ways to relax on the weekend is binge watching a show. Sometimes chores are easier to do when there's another episode waiting on the other end. And sometimes I need a day or two to 'rot in bed' with some entertainment. Yes, I am very glad bed rotting has become a trend, thank you for asking ;) So today I want to share with you my favorite tv-shows and mini-series you can binge in one weekend! These are shows I've watched in one or two days and found entertaining throughout. They also have a satisfying ending, so you don't end up on Monday yearning for more ;). As always, I keep this list updated when I find more. If you have any show that should be on this list, please share it with everyone in the comment section! If you want to save this list to Pinterest, here is a picture! 1. Lessons in Chemistry Vibes: Female empowerment, drama, romance, science, history, found family Length: 8 episodes of 40 to 50 minutes each I still don...
