Finally – the Archeologist

Finally – the Archeologist

by marlies|dekkers

“Finally,” the Archaeologist whispered as the most magnificent face she had ever seen emerged from the dust and the darkness, transcending centuries with its golden radiation. Could this really be it? The final resting place of Cleopatra, Goddess Queen of ancient Egypt? All of a sudden, a rustling sound. She didn’t believe in curses, but she knew that this gilded shrine could easily become her own tomb. Without turning around, she placed her hand on her gun.

“I married an archaeologist because the older I grow, the more he appreciates me,” Agatha Christie once jokingly said about her marriage to eminent archaeologist Max Mallowan (he was 13 years her junior). After a devastating divorce, Agatha took a trip to Baghdad – on the Orient Express! – in 1928 and lost her heart to archaeology, the ancient sites of Iraq and to Max, who would become the love of her life. Agatha spent the following two decades living on excavation sites in the Middle East, helping out with Max’s work (she famously used her Innoxa moisturizing face cream to clean and preserve the finds) and writing novels inspired by her adventures, including ‘Death on the Nile’ and ‘Murder on the Orient Express’. It turned out that crime writers and archaeologists are surprisingly alike: combining curiosity with critical thinking skills and wanderlust, they both dig patiently to reveal the shining truth.

“The lure of the past came up to grab me. To see a dagger slowly appearing, with its gold glint, through the sand was romantic.”– Agatha Christie in her memoir ‘Come, Tell Me How You Live’

Building bridges

From the Erasmus Bridge and the Mercedes-Benz Museum to Qatar’s metro network; Ben van Berkel’s iconic landmarks bring people together in rapturous beauty, again and again. I talked with the Dutch architect and educator about sensuality, ‘healthy’ buildings and the remarkable parallels between our designs.

More than a feeling

by marlies|dekkers

Don’t ignore your emotions; they are much more powerful than you can imagine. By linking the magical world of emotions with hard science, Dutch scientist Pierre Capel, professor emeritus in experimental immunology, shows us the consequences of our feelings and the power of our minds. The message: we can do much more than we think. “Meditate. It’s the single best thing you can do for your health.”

Keto curious?

The fact that I feel bikini-confident all year round is, of course, a nice bonus. But for me, the biggest payoff of following the keto diet is the way it optimizes my health and gives me tons of energy.

Super (skin) food

by marlies|dekkers

‘If you can’t eat it, why put it on your skin?’. I pretty much live by this beauty adage. After all, with your skin being one of your body’s largest organs, anything – and I mean anything! – you put onto your skin will end up in your bloodstream.
