what makes you happiest?
There are several situations and people that make me happy but my super happy moment is when I have a yummy cup of coffee in my hands and my mind clear of all stresses, ready to draw and paint.
do you have a ‘happy place’?
Not an specific one. But I love to go to the park, a new coffee shop or the beach to be with friends, take photos and make plans.

do you have a favourite happy song?
I actually have a playlist called “happy” on my ipod.The lyrics may not always be cute and happy but the music sure is. Some of my faves: Colours by Grouplove, Life is wonderful by Jason Mraz, Cough Syrup by Young the Giant

what gets you past a bad day?
These past months have been rough and life-changing so I am currently finding new ways of getting past a bad day. What works for me lately is:
-Go for a walk and take pictures of things that I consider pretty or that may work for my blog.
-Write things I want to do, plan things and list accomplishments.
-Make a huge and yummy cup of coffee and drinking it while listening to my fave songs. Usually songs that have a retro feeling make me feel better.
-Create a happy board, weather it be with actual printed images or using Pinterest.
-Chat, call, text or visit friends that make me laugh.
-Paint, even if I don’t have a clear idea of what I want to create, just by starting to paint I start to feel better.
