- Dyeing journey in Algarve - Portugal 2023

After spending 10 days at the Boom festival, where I was selling my creations from my nomadic wardrobe, the Universe beckoned me to the south of Portugal. That's where Clara, the incredible witch I met during Boom, and I found ourselves, in this hidden land within Algarve's eucalyptus forest, owned by Yogi, a 60-year-old free spirit.

By chance (or more because this time I heeded my instincts whispering in my ear), I brought along this stained kimono I had crafted from a beautiful white cotton purchased in a Moroccan souk a few years ago, "just in case" I'd find a place to dye it. So, once again, everything aligned perfectly ✨
