Sourced box review

-

Hi there! Are you interested in a subscription box and looking for a review than you are in the right place. Let me tell you my opinion and afterward you can make up your own. You know is it your thing or is it even worth it.
Sourced box is a healthy snack delivery service that's delivered once a month. The goodies are natural, mostly organic and totally vegan.
I had a year long subscription, 12 boxes, so I can give you a over all review of what the boxes mostly consist of, the quality and if it's worth the price. A annual subscription is 216 euro's (189,95 pounds) and monthly 21,6 euro's (18,95 pounds). Not very cheap I know.

Let me start by saying that I was never disappointed with the taste, overall they were all enjoyable and every box consisted of a variety of different sweet/savory snacks. Most packages included one drink, at least one protein/nut/fruit bar and chocolate. Then some included chips/some other crunchy/puffed item or a more dessert style treat like a mini cake. Sometimes I got a mini trail mix or granola box. I would say that I think that if you buy all the items separately you would end up with a higher amount. So quality wise it's pretty decent as well. You just have to choke up all the money at once (if you take yearly, which would be cheaper than buying them all monthly).
The most fun about sourced box I found was that it introduced me to a lot of vegan brand that I had never heard of before. You get a little pamphlet in the box highlighting some company's and telling you their story. However most were British brands exclusively, meaning I couldn't buy them again here in The Netherlands, I did have a way broader spectrum and didn't get bored eating them.

Overall I would say that yes it's expensive but it is a lot of fun to try it out for a year. You just get out of the grind of eating the some old things every time and you can make all you friends curious/jealous about the new exciting treats that you are feasting on!

Yours Faithfully,
Elianne

Mental health during Quarantine & Chill

-

Everyone is stuck in isolation. If it is with family, roommates, pets or just by yourself it can be hard. Not having enough alone time or having too much alone time can drive you wild. If you are familiar with mental health struggles this might be a difficult time for you. So here are some tips on how to get you through the days. PS: even if you don't struggle with mental health yourself this might still be a good read. It might help you relate or converse with those who do. 1. Meditation This is my favorite tip by far. If you're just a bit like me you'll be stuck in your head a lot. Nitpicking every single detail about yourself. Usually, in our busy student life, we have enough going on that there is not a lot of time left to spend hours in our heads. However, now that we're stuck sitting inside there is a whole lot of opportunities to snuggle up underneath a blanket with a cup of tea and start to fantasize about everything you hate about yourself. So I

MOCO

HI!! I went to a museum again. Let me tell you about it.  Moco museum in Amsterdam got my attention because they have a large Banksy and now and a Kusama expo. I love Banksy's street style graffiti art and really wanted to see his work up close. Afterwards I found out that this museum is on Banksy's list of illegal expositions. As in he did not give them permission to show his art. So something to think about if you're considering a visit. Nonetheless it was awesome to see his take on controversial topics.  The Kusama part was very small and therefore kind of a let down.  However, we really came for the Amethyst Ball Cavern created by Daniel Arsham. He has done a new show called Connection Time and I was pleasantly surprised. I loved his take on it with connection the alternative realty with architecture and pop culture objects.  We didn't spend much time there since it is not a big museum and usually crowded. It was still a fun activity, especially since we we

Museum Voorlinden

Hey art enthusiast! I recently went to the Voorlinden museum in Wassenaar and thought I'd share my experience :) It was a Thursday midday with very nice weather. And I specify this because this meant there weren't a lot of people. Those who were there, all above 50 haha. So we fitted right in. You might remember Renee my mistress in mischief whom I met in NY. She kept me company during this trip into aesthetics. Upon arrival we drove onto a big estate. It had a beautiful country house, where you could dine, and a lot of greenery surrounding it. (We had a picnic later on) The museum is also on the same land. It resembles a futuristic looking building with a lot of white and glass. I rather like this for museums. The price wasn't great. They didn't have any student discount so we had to pay the full price of 17,50.. However in my opinion it's worth it if you go during this exhibition. The Yahoo Kusama exhibition travels, especially the Infinity room is a rarity t
