Liebster award

Van mijn BYW Bootcamp klasgenoot Arda kreeg ik de Liebster Award. Ik was helemaal verrast omdat ik pas begonnen ben met bloggen. De Liebster Award is een prijs van bloggers voor bloggers en wordt gegeven aan, zoals Louise van 30s magazine  het zo mooi verwoordde, “bloggers who are small to medium or upcoming in the blogosphere”. Ik vind het een eer en heel leuk, dus dankjewel Arda! J
Als je de Liebster Award wint is het de bedoeling dat je een aantal vragen beantwoordt over jezelf, je de Award doorgeeft aan elf andere bloggers en hen ook weer elf vragen stelt.
Eerst maar ‘es de antwoorden op de vragen die Arda mij stelde…

My BYW Bootcamp classmate Arda nominated me for the Liebster Award. I was completely surprised because I’ve only just started blogging. The Liebster Award is an award from bloggers for bloggers and is given to, like Louise of 30smagazine beautifully phrased, “bloggers who are small to medium or upcoming in the blogosphere”. I’m honoured and I really like it, so thank you Arda! Winning the Liebster Award means answering a couple of questions about yourself, then pass the award to eleven other bloggers and ask them eleven new questions. First, my answers to Arda’s questions…

Best vacation ever? I’ve had more than one great vacation but I often think back on a day spent in London with my husband, a couple of years ago. We left early by train from Brighton, had breakfast at Borough Market (and did some shopping there), visited the Globe Theatre & Tate Modern, had sushi for lunch and did some more shopping later on. We finished the day back in Brighton, had a great Thai dinner followed by a few wines on a terrace. The whole day was just perfect!
When do you feel inspired? Often when taking a shower I get a lot of ideas!
Who do you admire most? People who are confident, who are honest to themselves and others, care about friends and family and find time to do good.
What would be your perfect day? A day similar to the one I described in my first answer but it would be nice if it included our two children as well.
Are you quiet or outgoing? I can be both, it depends on the situation I’m in
(and the amount of wine that’s in me ;-) ).

Where do you like to blog from? I like to blog from home, either sitting on the sofa with my laptop on my lap or sitting at the dining table.
Favorite ethnic food? That must be the thai food from The Churchill Arms in London. A typically English pub which serves the most delicious thai food! Really worth going to when in London.
What do you love knowing lots about? Art history is a subject I don't know that much about yet but I'd love to expand my knowledge in that area.  
Favorite color? I have to go for two colours, pink and grey.
Are you on the dance floor or do you prefer to observe the dancing? I hardly go out (and / or dancing) but I like both!
Morning or night person? I used to be a night person but with my two small kids I’m ‘forced’ to be more of a morning person…
