A short but sweet weekend with the kids, just 2.5 from Berlin

All the recommendations from our weekend at Wernigerode, a small town in the Harz district in Germany. There were lots of steam trains, playgrounds, good food, and many other family-friendly spots.

Our family-friendly four day staycation at königs Wusterhausen 

In this post, I share all the details about our first vacation as a family of four, which was spent only 35 minutes from home, in the small town of Königs Wusterhausen. We looked for a change of atmosphere from our city life, greenery and lakeside views, and discovered a few wonderful gems.

Family-friendly recommendations in the southwest of Berlin

We live in a quiet and green area in the southwest part of Berlin. Since moving here, two years ago, we managed to explore the area and discover some wonderful and family-friendly gems, some not so well-known. If you are traveling with kids and looking for nice and fun things to do and good places to eat and shop then you should definitely keep reading.

My personal experiences of pregnancies and births as an expat living in Berlin

It has been almost three months since I gave birth to our sweet daughter Libby, and I'm finally feeling ready to share our journey of becoming a family through relocation and Covid, along with some tips and thoughts for my fellow expats out there.

My blogging journey through relocation and motherhood
one

I am finally back, after over two years without writing! During that time I relocated from Israel to Germany, gave birth to my son Robin and his younger sister Libby. All this, along with this current pandemic, really threw me off track, and my previous Hebrew blog got left behind. On this post I share my experience during this time and a little about what's to come on this new and improved English blog. Hope you enjoy it.

Learn how to communicate through the language of design

Moving to another country, where the official language isn't English, made me think a lot about the concept of language. That concept also relates to the language of design and forming spaces through elements, colors, shapes and textures. In this post I share my take on the subject, along with tips on how to find, utilize and communicate your personal design language.

A few of my favorite Israeli home decor brands

Many people know about Israel's beautiful beaches, great weather, warm people and amazing food, but I am here to let you in on a little secret - we also have an amazing design scene going on. Israeli designers incorporate inspirations from different places around the world with technology, craftsmanship and creative points of view. On this post you will find five Israeli designers and brands that I personally really love and that have also branched outside of Israel and ship their creations internationally.

Suggested color palettes and decor choices for your children's room

Styling children's rooms and nurseries is super fun, especially because there is such an amazing variety of accessories, wallpapers and textiles to choose from. But for the same reason, it can be a bit challenging to choose a certain concept and a specific color story. In designing our own nursery I had to choose a certain style and palette, but here on my blog I could bring a few more ideas to life. I created five mood boards for nurseries and children's rooms with links to all of the products, so you could easily create a version of them in your home.
