Quiet trails, wild strawberries, and moments that breathe. These mountain holidays remind us to slow down and be present.

Discover the Art of Living Slowly

Take a deep breath. Slow down. In this space, I share stories and reflections on how slowing down has changed the way I live, create, and connect. If you're curious about slow living — or simply need a gentle pause — you're in the right place.

5 Simple Daily Rituals to Slow Down and Feel Better

In a world that never stops, slowing down is an act of care. These five gentle rituals help you reconnect with yourself, bring more presence into your days, and rediscover the beauty of small, intentional moments. They’re easy, real, and life-giving — just like slow living should be.

Imagine owning just one sweater…

Made with your own hands. In a fiber that breathes, lasts, and tells a story. This isn’t fast fashion. It’s slow, intentional, and rooted in quality. Ready to rethink what “quality” truly means?

Crochet has always been more than a craft for me — it's been my refuge, my therapy, and my quiet revolution.

From childhood memories with my grandmother to the challenging days of early motherhood, crochet has helped me slow down, find peace, and reconnect with myself. In this post, I share how yarn and stitches became a way to heal, grow, and live with intention.

You Don’t Need Much to Start Creating

Growing up in post-Soviet Moldova, surrounded by snow, simplicity, and handmade tools, I learned that creativity doesn’t require expensive materials — only heart, patience, and a bit of yarn. This is the story of how I began crafting with a crochet hook made from a bicycle spoke.

Your thoughts matter.

Share your reflections, stories, or a piece of your own journey- I'd love to hear how slow and mindful living inspires you.
