Lost in London

I prefer traveling in cities over doing only a beach vacation or hiking tour. This is especially true with solo-traveling. To go alone to the beach means I worry about my personal stuff when I go for a swim, and hiking in an area I don’t know and to have an accident while doing soContinue reading “Lost in London”

Shakshuka

When I went to Israel the first time, I asked friends of mine, what to see and what to do and Mr. Shakshuka in Tel Aviv Jaffa was one of the recommendations. Since I didn’t had any knowledge about the Israelian kitchen I didn’t know this was also the name of a traditionally dish, soContinue reading “Shakshuka”

Time for Carbonara

Okay, first you should know this: There are some varieties of the recipe out there. One reason for that is that every region has its own slightly different version, like they use another kind of cheese because they have some special regional hot shit cheese in their region or they use a bit more orContinue reading “Time for Carbonara”

The Strawberry Risotto

This recipe I got from my cooking challenge group. We started it when lockdown began in Italy to keep ourselves busy and stay in contact. I changed it a bit, since I didn’t understand it fully, but it turned out fabulous. You get the changed version. It is an easy dish and actually not thatContinue reading “The Strawberry Risotto”

Returning to Berlin

So, remember when I told you how happy I am, that I finally found a spot? With a flatmate I could talk to and room for my own and a balcony? Guess what happened….

Activities during Lockdown

To be honest, I wasn’t sure about writing that post at all. That’s what took me so long this week actually. We’re going down my rabbit hole because especially in the first weeks the lockdown situation felt a lot like a depressive phase I had some years ago. And trying to find activities while stayingContinue reading “Activities during Lockdown”

Activities in Bologna

Even I only could enjoy three weeks of activities, I want to tell you a bit about them, what I liked (why) and what not (and why not). Hope to do some of them soon again with my new friends and explore even more of that lovely city.

(Where) To live or not to live

One of the most annoying problems I had here was the search for a place to live. Finally I have found my place, but how many nerves I lost on my way here…

To feel and to learn.

Feelings are important to decide quickly. But they’re based on all kind of stuff and sometimes they can trick you to do something which is actually not good for you. Or people around you. Especially when you experience something new, it’s important to learn what your feelings are telling you and most importantly why theyContinue reading “To feel and to learn.”
