Favorite moments: Best place I blogged

“Combine that with your fave coffee flavour and voila”

With 100% certainty I can say that blogging in New York, especially a Starbucks with a good view on the always busy streets, is the best place I blogged. Why? Well I think it has to do with the fact that I’m surrounded with life …and by life I mean the life I need: fashionistas, gents, architecture, signs, sounds, working people, stories, interesting and contrasting street moments. Combine that with your fave coffee flavour and voila …I got myself the place to work.

I found working here just perfect, starting the day with a nice breakfast and coffee while checking the latest and posting new stuff for you guys. While working I got energized by only looking outside; the people, the traffic …all great moments to capture. So every day I couldn’t wait to finish my daily posts and grab my beloved camera and hit the streets!

Of course back in The Netherlands I also got these moments and places, but it just not that great as I experienced in New York …so can’t wait to go back again.

“An essential part of my workflow”

For some time I have been thinking for a small update of my desk ….a nicely organized desk really improves my workflow. I noticed that my desk is a bit unorganized because I caught myself having lots of those ´hey where is that thing?´-moments lately. I’m always illustrating my ideas and also now for this desk-update I came up with this illustration to give you guys a visual of idea.

Still looking for some nice accessories to store my cables, small camera gear and my stationery. Any tips?

“Working with a view”

Finally that time of the year has come …I just love reading a magazine or blogging at the balcony: Summer workflow. As I’m writing this blog I got my iPhone playlist on and all I do is enjoy the nice purple to yellow gradient sky and the silence on the streets.

Also have favorite summer evening moments?

PERSONAL : My workflow on the go

Smartphone apps, tablets and free public wifi makes blogging more fun and easy to do. When I’m writing a blog post, doing some illustration or need to be inspired the best place for me to go to would be a coffeehouse. Of course I prefer Starbucks. It’s my favorite place because, beside the coffee and atmosphere, it appeals to lots of interesting people: business people, travelers/ tourists, bloggers and fashionistas.
