“What a privilege to be tired from the work you once begged the universe for.

What a privilege to feel overwhelmed by the growth you used to dream about.

What a privilege to be challenged by a life you created on purpose.

What a privilege to outgrow things you used to settle for.”

Wishing you a New Year filled with clarity, purpose, and meaningful progress.

I hope that you find your people.
The ones who notice what others miss, and love you even more because of it.

The ones who speak your language, so you don’t have to spend a lifetime translating your soul.

I hope they remind you that love should feel steady, not confusing. Peaceful, not full of questions. That love feels like home, not like a test you have to pass every day.

Most of all, I hope you never have to question your love, because the right kind of love will make sure you never do.

Last year around this time, I was certain my life was about to change.
I even had a farewell party, convinced I was moving to Switzerland to manage private garden projects worth up to 10 million euros. It felt like the next chapter had already been written for me.

But life doesn’t always follow our scripts.
Sometimes it redirects you—gently, abruptly, unpredictably—and all you can do is follow where it leads.

Today I’m Head of Landscape in one of the biggest firms in Melbourne, and I am working on the biggest and most ambitious projects of my career. A path I never planned, yet one that aligns with almost poetic precision.

And still… I don’t know what’s next, but maybe that’s the beauty of it—
trusting the detours, honouring the unknown, and letting life surprise you in ways your plans never could.

The only thing I know is whatever is mine, is looking for me.

Hi beautiful people,

The 16th and 17th of November the Garden Design Fest will takes place, and I am part of it with my small garden in Elwood.

It’s a garden I share with the 4 other owners of my apartment building, which I built with passion, curiosity and love in the last couple of years. It’s absolutely not pretentious, but somehow I have been able to collect something like 100-150 different species/varieties, most of which are rescued or picked up from the street/abandoned areas etc.

It’a a good example of the variety achievable with Mediterranean plants (coming from Mediterranean regions of the world).

So, if you feel like you wanna have a chat about gardens and plants, come and say hi!

There is a ticket to pay, and the money goes to a charity. For more info, have a look here:

I hope to see you here!

FEEL

In the dance of life, relinquishing control is a profound step. Letting go doesn't signify weakness but strength in acceptance. Embrace the liberation in surrender; true power lies in letting things flow organically.

BALANCE

It's about the interplay of colors, textures, and forms, where every plant, pathway, and hardscape element finds its place in perfect harmony.

CONCRETE AND BLOOMS

I've found something truly special on this terrace: a love for the captivating contrast between wild nature and the city concrete jungle.

This oasis has been planned to attract insects and birds on one side, and on the other side to provide an amazing display of blossoms for our clients.

Weigelias, Verbenas, Iris, Wild roses and many more, create this peaceful escape from the city chaos.

PATIENCE.

In the world of gardening, there's a delicate balance between the wonder of watching nature unfold and the frustration of those who simply can't wait for the garden to be fully grown.

Gardening teaches us that some things cannot be rushed. It reminds us that while the journey may be slow, it can be filled with wonder and growth.

In this garden , planted less than a year ago, Francoa, Heucherella, Liriope, Alocasia, Anemone, Doodia are slowly growing, not as fast as I would love due to the hungry root system of this centenary Oak tree.

Every garden teaches me something new: in this one I’ve found a place to nurture patience, understanding, and appreciation for the beauty in the wait.

And you? Are you patient?

Cotinus mon amour.
‘Young Lady’ is tough, drought resistant, and grow up to 1.5m. In summer is covered in a profusion of ethereal flowers.
