    Life is full of boxes

    And it’s much worse if you forgot to label them. Our life is still surrounded by boxes. It’s a bit chaotic and I am not sure what we will do about Christmas. As we plan on having the house renovated next year we are reluctant to unpack and properly move in. We do need to […]
