On today’s show, we’re talking with the co-founders of Indianaweg in Amsterdam, two sisters named Romy and Débra. These two have a big love for vintage treasure, and curated a lovely selection of vintage clothing, jewelry and more. They believe that nothing is more beautiful and sustainable than vintage, and I couldn’t agree more – and it’s their mission to bring people timeless, high quality pieces, which already exist.

I visited their beautiful shops while recently in Amsterdam, and have to say their curation is incredible and Indianaweg is the place to find unique beautiful pieces there.

This is a really fun episode today, so let’s dive right in!
