Covid in Denmark

November 15, 2021 By Sage 29 Comments

Covid in Denmark

The arrival of Covid in Denmark (and the world) has definitely put the kibosh on my cross-border goose-following. But if you ever have to choose a place to ride out a pandemic, I can recommend Denmark—8 out of 10 stars. It loses 2 stars for not turning it away at the border ;) Almost two… Continue Reading

8 of My Best Curbside Finds

October 23, 2021 By Sage 11 Comments

Shopping the Curb

Traditional retail therapy has never been my jam. Then lockdown brought my secondhand shopping to a screeching halt—because non-essential. So I followed the goose into the freegan lifestyle. Freeganism is an alternative lifestyle based on minimal consumption of resources and limited participation in the conventional economy. I’m drawn to the freegan lifestyle for philosophical rather than financial… Continue Reading

My April Grocery Spend

Denmark Prices for Food

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…

April 3, 2018 By Sage 22 Comments

Hygge Bedroom

I’m completely in love with Frederiksbjerg’s neighborhood vibe! Even though it’s in the city center, 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 has wine tastings on Fridays and Saturdays—and free coffee… Continue Reading

My Latest Thrift Shopping Finds

February 15, 2018 By Sage 15 Comments

Thrift Shopping Finds

Awesome thrift shopping finds are one of my all-time favorite things! My favorites are charity-run thrift shops where you decide to pop in spur of the moment and happen to come across the most perfectly patinated thrift shopping finds for ridiculous prices, like this poncho, change purse, work bag, shoes, ’60s electric curlers, vintage camera, vintage vanity… Continue Reading

My new (vintage) apartment!

February 7, 2018 By Sage 35 Comments

My Vintage Apartment Denmark

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. Since then, I’ve property-lusted after places like Charlize Theron’s eclectic Victorian apartment in Sweet November, Anne Hathaway’s bohemian studio in Love and Other Drugs, and Amelie’s timeworn Montmartre flat….

Not another expat Christmas alone…

December 27, 2017 By Sage 8 Comments

Expat Christmas Alone @ Hallo Hostel Aarhus

It’s fun living abroad, until you’re facing yet another expat Christmas alone. A lot of expats go home for Christmas, but many can’t or don’t. Others come from cultures that either don’t celebrate Christmas on the 24th and 25th or don’t celebrate at all. So for many expats, one of the most looked forward to times… Continue Reading

Once upon a time, I had the chance to move to the happiest country in the world!

My restless Aries spirit liked that idea, so I did what any girl in my position would do… I grabbed my cat, booked a one-way ticket to Denmark, and became an expat!
