Three of my most read posts are a series I did where I listed the Denmark prices for beauty items, liquor and dining out, and an assortment of groceries. Now I’m making this a monthly feature documenting Denmark prices for food by posting an itemized list of my monthly grocery spending and savings here in Aarhus,… Continue Reading
My new (semi-decorated) bedroom…
I’m completely in love with the neighborhood vibe of Frederiksbjerg. The location is more convenient than I thought it would be and it’s mostly silent except for church bells and birds. Denmark’s biggest farmers market happens twice a week a couple of streets away, there’s a flea market every other Sunday, and my grocery store… Continue Reading
A $60 Online Divorce… the (Official) End of Us

My new (vintage) apartment!
As a college student in an old New England mill town, I spent much of the 90s living in converted Victorian mansions well past their prime.
