How did you choose your furniture?
I really like hot materials like wood, which I then break with glass, or some contemporary. I am a very visible person and usually what I need in any corner of my house.
Are you connected to all your things?
I have a strong relationship for whatever I have – after all, I chose it myself! An item is not just a piece of furniture, there is also all love that went into making something beautiful. For me, my relationship for objects shows how I am taking care of myself, creating an environment that is a good place to live.
This is a good way to see.
I feel the same about cooking, which is relevant to me as well and how I see this idea of self-care. When I cook, I take care of myself. But I also like to take care of others and I often invite friends. I missed so much in my temporary house. I think there is a need to be there for friends. My mother always did this and it seems that she has taken that instinct on me. While reading a human design, where you determine which room in the house best reflects your view, I selected the kitchen. First of all I thought to myself, “Are you serious?” But then I stopped and realized that it makes sense, because the kitchen is a symbol of love, sex and a sense of security for me. This is the place where everyone gathers.
Does this mean that you have a lot of visitors?
Yes, I really enjoy hosting. I like to host dinner parties, game Nights, and I partyed here on a New Year’s Eve.
Why is your own home so important for self-care
And yet you travel a lot, so what does the house mean?
I think this is fine because I travel so much that I need a lot of place where I can still relax more. And the older I get, the more rest is needed. I like to spend time with friends, but I also like to be alone – watching a film without watching by fireplace or talking to someone. It is important for me to find a balance. My house encourages inner peace, feeling of satisfaction and self-care. I believe that a peaceful setting is essential for me and is inseparable by finding and maintaining its inner peace. Of course, you can feel somewhere else at home, and first and first you have to feel at home in your skin, wherever you are.
Finally, can you give any advice to those who have gone through a difficult situation and now need to start it?
Do not pressure yourself so much that all answers and solutions are also quickly. I am a very positive thinker, and it sometimes wants me to do everything back on the track very quickly, but sometimes things just take time. You have to stay with what you have experienced and feel it. I did not necessarily want to end in Daseldorf because of the city, but at some point my intestine told me that I need my place again and then the answer came. And I could not force or run away.
