Sunny August Vibes: Illustrated By Hand, Of Course.

Enjoying Summer With My Hand-Drawn Sunny Favorites.

August was thé summer month this year. There was still a lot of rain, but also many sunny days. Some way too hot actually.

I went camping a few times, did a lot of hiking and after-work Stand Up Paddling, rowing, and of course had many picnics. I’m really trying to enjoy these long, warm days as much as possible, before autumn starts.

This illustration is filled with happy, summer favorites, that helped me to stay cool during the hottest days. I hope you are also enjoying summer! See you in September!

Sunny Summer Faves!

My Hot Summer Day Favorites, Illustrated, Of Course.

I´m not good with heat but I try to make the most of it. Usually that means finding shade in a forest or going for a refreshing swim in a cold lake or river. These are the things I bring along on such days.

What I Pack When I Go Hiking, Illustrated.

I had some time off last week and what did I mostly do? Hiking and enjoying nature of course.
I made this drawing to show you all of my hiking essentials, including comfy hiking boots and socks, reusable lunch bags & bottles and lots of SPF. I would also be literally lost without Google Maps and the Komoot app.⁠
Do you also like to hike? And are you missing some of your own outdoor essentials on here? I would love to know😊⁠
PS. I have several outdoor-themed postcards available in my Etsy shop.⁠🥾⁠

I’m off on a small break. Not to Norway as planned, but a few days of hiking on the Dutch long distance Pieterpad-trail. But first a day of water-sport-fun. Making the most of this forced staycation 😉

I’m keeping my Esty shop open, but won’t start shipping again until Monday. See you later!⁠
