Let me take you to the greenest, most stunning landscapes of the Anaga mountains.
Into the Swamp
Did you know that boglands are insanely relevant to the climate? Me neither. But I learned all about it during a week-long working holiday in the Black Moor with German nature protection organization Bergwaldprojekt. e.V. *
*Cat content, dog content, sheep content, goat content, lizard content. No spiders, I promise.
One Week in Malta
Curious about my week staying at a Maltese tiny house practically on Valetta’s doorstep? Well, come see! But do exercise some caution, the floor is wet.
Croatian island time
After my hiking trip to Achensee and my massive sightseeing trips to Verbania and Milan, I took a real holiday. No phone, just reading books, drinking wine, looking at medieval architecture, and swimming in the sea. Real island time!
Go Put Some Carrots in a Cake
So… there was mostly travel here, lately, and barely any food. But I am about to change that right now! Here is a recipe for my all time favorite cake.
Peachy Goodness
Today, I experimented a little and it turned out very well, so I will gladly share it with you. I had received a bunch of very soft peaches earlier. They were a little brown already, so I had to do something about them fast.
Nutty Pear and Honey Porridge
It’s fall where I live and all of a sudden the weather turned grey and wet. I like to eat a warm breakfast, especially when the weather is cold.
My mom brought me some pears from her garden this weekend and here is what I did with them:

Anyway! Hear me out! I encourage you to try this once, and if you STILL hate it, you have my permission to type up some angry comments.
Shortie but Goodie: Feta-Stuffed Dates
This is the easiest one yet: Two ingredients. Unless you have a severe dislike for one of those, you will love this.
Shortie but Goodie: Hempseed Chocolate Bites
Apparently, hempseed* is super nutritious, high in protein and healthy fats and works well when sprinkled over smoothie bowls. At least that’s what my best friend since kindergarden served me for breakfast when I stayed with her (it was super healthy and super delicious). Which I don’t eat very often these days, because it is too cold and I want something hot.
So, I bought some hemseed and the stuff has been sitting on my shelf for a while and apart from occasionally putting it in my Müsli I haven’t eaten any of it.
What to do? Add chocolate.
