About Atelier Bogoria

Atelier Bogoria came to life in my mind during my years living in South Africa and Kenya.Experiencing different cultures and living close to vineyards and coffee farms shifted my perspective. The creativity inspired me. The pace of life made me feel at home — pole pole. The stories made me reflect on how life is and how it might be lived. Nature brought a deep sense of freedom and connection. The winemakers and coffee farmers showed me what’s possible when craft, care, and nature are in harmony. Now back in the Netherlands, I’d love to share this with you.
