What does everyday life mean to you?
Everything that can happen in a day. The reason i started documenting my everyday life is that i tend to see without seeing. It makes me feel more conscious, in a way. Other than that i'm obsessed with other people's lives, but I guess it's in our nature to be curious. The internet has made the world such a smaller place.
Can you share a daily ritual with us?
When i wake up i have to throw my cat off my face first, every single day. Then i get up for coffee and breakfast, because without food i don't really function.
How do you break the pattern of daily life every once in a while?
I have two total different ways: 1. My parents live in a tiny tiny village (Google maps + Polsbroek and you'll see) with nothing but cows and grassland. I love to go there because it's so peaceful and quiet. 2. Party as if there is no tomorrow, dance wildly to techno music!
