They say I’m a test post. So hello everyone 😀
Knights, Horses and Fire
One of the things I found out pretty soon after we moved to Dieburg is, that we do, in fact, have a stunt riding team in town! How cool is that? They also arrange a Knight’s Spectaculum every year with a tiny but cozy medieval market, a Knight’s tournament and a fire show with horses…
Hello 2017 and goodbye 2016
Happy new year everyone! What a bumpy ride the last year has been which, at some point, applies to every year [kinda repeating myself here]~! One of my big highlights was our trip to Scotland. It was our first vacation together for Hannes and me and we had a great time in Edinburgh. Such a beautiful…
The wild hunt is out and about
[trying to break the blog-silence with a tiny life sign] I really like winter because it is a cozy time at home with candles, blankets and warm drinks, the cats like to snuggle a lot more and I also enjoy the icy cold morning walks. I wish we would have had more snow the last…

Autumn is time for handicrafts – Naalbinding
Last year I finally learned how to do Naalbinding/Needlebinding – an old scandinavian handicraft. I wanted to learn this for a few years now since I’m really interested in the viking age and everything related to it. My friend Lena had this lovely needle made for me at one of the markets we visited last…
Solstice weekend feasting
My hun turned 30 this weekend and together with the summer solstice we spend two lovely days with friends and family and lot’s of food! I would have loved to have a fire outside for the solstice but we we’re so exhausted and it was raining~ so I decided to light some candles instead and…
