One thing before we start. I am dedicating this day to the following song: Mimimi. We didn’t sleep well this night. Sleeping in this bungalow felt more like sleeping in a tent, only bigger. The couch was too short for…
This night, as the night before, a mosquito bit me. I wake up several times because it’s itching and burning. I tend to react a little more to mosquito bites without having a real allergy, but maybe I’m just whining.…
Steffi and I landed well in Porto yesterday. Today we are going to do a little sightseeing and since we have been walking a lot yesterday, we decided to take the bus. The Yellow Bus passes the historical city center and…
[Advertising: Affiliate Links] The day has finally arrived! In two days I’m going to go to Porto to start my Camino Português. I’ve been excited for months now, because I haven’t been hiking this much lately. For the first time…
[Advertising: Affiliate Links] I am usually not that big of a fan of quiches and tarts, but when I brought two beautiful and thick stalks leek home from grocery shopping, I wanted to make something else but soup. Something “to…

Doesn’t this salad has beautiful colors in it? And it is not only pleasure to the eyes. Baked sweet potato and beetroot, cooked beluga lentils and fried king oyster mushrooms combine to make a delicious salad. The dressing is a…
So looking forward to this. In about 12 weeks I am going to hike the Camino Português and this time I am not going alone. My friend Steffi is going to be my hiking buddy. We already booked the flights…
I recently spent an evening with my friends playing games and brought some little empanadas as a snack. To make these delicious empanadas you need a yeast dough and one or two delicious fillings. I chose a spicy filling with…
[Advertising: Affiliate Links] Oh, my colleagues were happy when I brought three different cupcakes instead of simple cake to a meeting. I made simple chocolate and vanilla cupcakes and these cinnamon and plum filled gingerbread cupcakes with a mulled wine…
It finally got colder and it occasionally rained. This is much more likely November weather and nature had suffered from draught long enough. Who did not needed some rain? Me! I loved to skip the fall on wet roads I…
The easiest way to turn a lot of fruit into a dessert without just eating raw fruit is probably making a crumble. And it is also the most delicious, if you ask me. You can make crumbles with all kinds…
[Advertising: Affiliate Links] I haven’t cooked this fast and easy dish in a long time. I don’t know why, because it is really delicious! Smoked tofu, peas and mint might sound like a weird combination, but those ingredients complement each…
