Do you remember the webcam birth blog of elephant baby Kai Mook last May in the Antwerp Zoo? Right now on the Blijdorp Rotterdam Zoo webcam you can see polar mummy Tania busy giving birth to our own little Knut! Oh mummy is looking so cute, like some big white huggy bear, exciting!!

Update: It turns out it’s not completely sure if Tania is expecting, let’s hope they were right and we can welcome an arctic wonder soon!!

The 7th edition of stocksample sale Mode Marché is held january 30 during Fashionweek in….Amsterdam? Excuse me, since when exactly isn’t my Hometown good enough, the same city that brought Mode Marché to life in the first place. “From Rotterdam, With Love” can’t justify the obvious commercial reasons why the event has moved, why not call the event “Grab That Crap” and get it over with. Note to myself: Never Forget Where You Came From.
