I LOVE –  Archipelago Cinema. Located off Kudu Island in Thailand Tilda Swinton is a bit of a goddess.

Nothing better than a plexiglass bathtub filled with warm water and essential oils while having the impression of being  surrounded by a pretty sea aquarium. In an island, it’s nice to be isolated but it is also fun to enjoy  good design and high tech!  

I LOVE – Daydreaming especially when surrounded by nature. I’ve seen in several occasions that my thoughts through meditation took me to far away lands emotionally and shortly after , in real physical life. Trust me,  to sit or lie down quietly is another kind of great and powerful exercise.

Scott Fitzgerald’s 1925 novel of the same name, the film was co-written and directed by Baz […]
