Since slow living is all about a mindset it naturally encompasses all areas of our lives and applies to everything from what we eat to how we decorate our homes. Like slow interiors, slow fashion and slow food, slow gardening is inspired by the slow food move that I grew up with, which began in the 1980s in Italy. Slow gardening is the only way I can and want to grow my garden. It consists…
I just got home from Spain again. It is a lot of paperwork to buy a house, but now everything is ready. It was 4 intense days with a lot of rain and wind. Meetings with lawyers and transfer of all agreements such as water, electricity, insurance etc. The first time in several years that I went down myself. A bit cumbersome but it still worked, especially when you are a little stubborn and strong-willed. …
in fact, we have finally bought our mediterranean house. Which I longed for and which we were looking for above all. For several years we have been looking for 'our' Mediterranean house and now we have finally found a home.
It's Monday morning. Outside, a little light snow-mixed rain falls, but during the past weekend I spent most of it in my greenhouse. It's spring in the greenhouse. I have officially started the greenhouse season for this year. I started down a little first spring cleaning. Swept the floor of fallen leaves and soil debris. The big spring cleaning with cleaning windows etc has to wait until it gets a little warmer .. Last year at this…
In recent months, I have taken an online course in holistic sustainable fashion creation via SDA Bocconi and Get smarter online. Winter is really made to be further developed and take courses. Especially when you can go online and remotely. SDA Bocconi school of Management is located in Milan but I have studied from home and in cafes etc. Now I am just at the end of the course and I am…
My gut flora is finally in balance again. This with intestinal health is such a huge and wide area, which has made this post take longer than I had planned. I have namely wanted to write this post about how I restored my intestinal health and my intestinal flora on my own for a very long time. I will try to stay a little short but promise nothing. From a belly of stone…
Then came the first of December and some Christmas decorations have come up. This year there is a lot of focus on the green at home. Maybe because of our new interest in gardening or maybe because the natural green is at its most beautiful by itself. Natural and simple. It's Nando's first Christmas with us and he helps me with most things. We have decorated the entrance together. We got help from my friends at…
During our project to create a farm in the middle of the city, my family and I would try to grow hay bales in addition to our traditional cultivation beds. I had never heard of the concept before, I had never grown at all before the filming of the series. Everything was new, including hay bale cultivation or straw bale gardening. Maybe it was just as good that I did not know much before…
There have already been three episodes of the series but I have not had time to write anything about this on the blog so I thought it might be time now. For the past six months, we have been working to transform our villa garden into a self-sustaining organic farm. A city farm where ecological cycle is in focus. Together with two experts; Sara Bäckmo and Johan Widing and Meter television so we have…
Slow living does not mean that you always sit in a forest glade and breathe deeply. I like and often advocate a slow living philosophy, but that does not mean that I also have intense working days with a lot on the agenda. However, my attitude and attitude have changed.
