An English girl living in Germany.
In August 2014 I moved from England to Germany with my Husband. Before moving I didn’t speak a word of German so living here has been a very big learning curve! I started posting regularly on my blog when we moved to Germany and have been blogging ever since. I have also found that since living in Germany my love for baking and food in general, has just grown and grown!
In October 2016 I started writing parts of my blog in German. I know my German isn’t perfect so please be patient with me and if you can give me a few pointers I would be really grateful!
On the first Thursday of every month, Greta from the blog Made by Greta and I do a recipe swap. To find out more about The Food Exchange click here.
I post mainly my own recipes, about my travels and my experiences living in a new country.
Other things I love… reading, cookbooks, cycling, Paris, Scandinavian interiors and Sherlock Holmes.

Hi there! I just wanted to pop by and say thank you for following me. It sounds like you are on quite an adventure yourself and I look forward to reading your posts. The chocolate marshmallow bar looks amazing by the way – I will definitely be trying this! 🙂 Happy cooking x
Thank you for following my blog too! You definitely should! They are a firm favourite in this house hold! Please let me know how you get on with them! X
I’m not much of a sweet baker but your blog makes me want to change that!
Thank you! I loved the look of the baguettes on your blog! I make some bread but haven’t dared attempt them yet!
Thank you! Hahaha if you can make the layered german cake, you can make a baguette.

This is so exciting and I am sure there are so many wonderful recipes! I am looking forward to exploring!
Thank you so much 🙂 your blog looks really interesting too! I look forward to having a look round!
Becoming a patry chef! Quite amazing!
Looks like we are going through a lit of similar experiences! I love the recipe swap you are doing with Greta, maybe I should start looking for a Danish swapping partner too 😉
Greetings from a German in Denmark 🙂
I have just had a look at your blog, I am so jealous that you live in Copenhagen! It has been at the top of my to visit list for a while! Where are you from in Germany? I look forward to reading more of your blog!
Oh yeah, apart from the price level it is absolutely perfect to live here! You should definitely make that trip happen!
I am from southern Germany, close to Mannheim. Where do you live now? Have you adapted to the local cuisine yet?
I will do! I just need to save a bit first 😉 Not too far from me at all then! I was in Mannheim last week! We live close to Landau! I am getting there with the German food. I have developed a slight obsession with Käse Spätzle! However I am not a huge meat eater so I am struggling with that a little! How are you finding the food in Denmark?
Nooo, what a coincidence! My grandma lives close to Landau too! And yes, I love Käsespätzle as well ❤ but have you tried Dampfnudeln yet? I think they are even better 😉
Yep, I have the same meat problem here in Denmark, but the pastry here is soooo good, that you basically could live only eating pastry 😉
How strange! It is a really nice area to live in, although it is snowing at the moment! I have tried Dampfnudeln, I really liked it especially with vanilla sauce!
I have heard the pastries in Denmark are really good! I would love to get some experience in a Danish kitchen after I have finished my training.
Is there quite a lot of fish in the diet there?
