about me

Hi there! My name is Nona. I’m Finnish, grew up in a bilingual Finnish-Swedish speaking home. I love Finland, and especially so the nature and the spaciousness, but always knew I'd be moving abroad. 

So, over a decade ago I packed my bags and moved to the Netherlands and kind of got 'stuck' here :).

I’m a continuous DREAMER, a very hope’ful’ ROMANTIC, a true OPTIMIST, a MANIFESTOR in practice, a devoted MOTHER, shining my LIGHT to the best of my ability. I hope that my blog will serve as positive inspiration to anyone and everyone who 'lands' here. 

One of my relaxation points and sources of INSPIRATION is when I get to leap into the world and beauty of INTERIOR DECORATION, STYLING and CREATIVITY related to that. I love PHOTOGRAPHY as well as all kinds of HANDY-CRAFTS, am nuts about WHITE, have a “thing” for STARS and HEARTS. My interior preference leans mostly towards a fresh SEASIDE look, i.e. NEW ENGLAND style meets the light SCANDINAVIAN COUNTRY style with plenty of VINTAGE INDUSTIAL style touches.

I now have my own webshop on Etsy - Haven of Harmony
- A shop based on coastal inspired living, positive inspiration for the home and creating a haven of harmony for yourself.

My DREAM (and intention) is to LIVE in my dream home - a beautiful seaside villa completely surrounded by nature. I already know pretty much what this home of mine looks and feels like. It is a true HAVEN of HARMONY!
