A couple of months ago I was the thrilled winner of the ‘Well-Loved’ journal contest π
Unfortunately it didn’t get to me before I left for Canada so I didn’t have the joy of receiving and opening it but I did get my mother in law to open it and send me a picture once it came in the mail πππ
So, now that I’m back in Holland I am finally able to enjoy it!
The leather is super soft and it came with a ‘Rhodia’ paper notebook as well as a kind, handwritten letter ππ

I’ve tested it out a couple of times and if only putting my pens and markers inside, snapping it up and carrying it around made me create stuff as legit as it makes me feel π
Holding a leather bound notebook packed with your necessities somehow makes the whole experience seem more adventuresome/professional.
Perhaps I’m just too easily pulled along by my imagination ππ
Either way I will be finding every excuse to bring my new journal with me and it is indeed, ‘Well Loved’. β€οΈ
Check out the shop for yourself!

Hello humans π
This is where you learn about me I suppose, though anyone reading this right now most likely knows all the boring details ;)
I am Jessica Rose Peters-Hagenouw.
(Always thought I'd be able to pronounce my married name but hey, life doesn't go as we plan.)
June 11, 1995, tis the day Robert and Bonnie Peters received the most adorable, amazing, wonderful, surprise 3rd child they could have dreamed of.
Speaking of being the third child, I have an older brother and an older sister.
Both of whom are married and have wee little families of their own, making 'Aunty Jess' another name I go by.
I grew up and have lived all of my years up till November 2015 in Saskatchewan, Canada.
Making summers that are extremely short and winters that never end, vast open spaces, northern lights, unthinkable amounts of mosquitoes, lakes, forests and people waving to you on the grid road all different things that mean = Home.
But Home is not where I'll be for some time.
My husband is a Dutchman, living in Europe.
Therefore I too have been living in Europe for the last few months.
The reason I started this little blog/journal/writing thing, is to document a bit of my "whole new world," for those at home who wont be awake at 3:00 am wanting to hear about how I couldn't find flour at the grocery store.
Thanks for stopping by and taking a peek into my little life π
