Dear members,

 

Below you’ll find an ever-growing list of spots that were added to the site this month. The paint just dried at some of the addresses, while others have been added because you wanted some tips in those destinations. This month you can expect a full guide of Brussels, new places in Hudson, New York, Sweden and already some of my best finds in Scotland where I was this month to see if you can combine design with nature. The answer is yes, and that proves the Scotland page.

 

Enjoy your new month, warm wishes, Pauline
