What happens to expats after Brexit?

July 1, 2016 By Sage 17 Comments

What happens to expats after Brexit?

So, this happened. Robert got up at 4 am “EU time” as he calls it now that his country has voted to leave the Union. I periodically checked the results on my phone as I restlessly drifted in and out of sleep. Around 7:00, Robert brought me a cup of tea and somberly announced that Britain voted to leave… Continue Reading

Five British TV Series to Binge Watch (& Two Australian Period Dramas)

March 17, 2016 By Sage 65 Comments

British TV Series to Binge Watch

It seems like everyone is addicted to Downton Abbey, Mr. Selfridge, Call the Midwife, or a combination of the three. With two of the three series ending this year, it’s hard times for anglophile TV fans. Don’t fret. Being married to an Englishman gives me the inside scoop on British TV, so to help you through… Continue Reading

The time we almost moved to England…

Georgian Townhouse

My last post didn’t tell the whole story of our anniversary trip. It’s true we’d gone to Lincolnshire so that Robert could show me a bit of England outside of London, and it’s true that we fell in love with the place. We fell so hard that we looked at real estate, and fell even harder for a Grade… Continue Reading

Denmark Immigration Visa: 5 years & a bit… I’m finally European!

July 17, 2015 By Sage 32 Comments

Denmark Permanent Residence Permit

Well, sort of. Marrying Robert has given me the gift of permanent residency in Denmark, and it’s transferrable to other countries! I’ve got a golden ticket to knock around Europe for the rest of my life :-) My initial Denmark immigration visa had an expiration date and was tied to a specific job, so if I’d changed… Continue Reading

Zelda Fitzgerald: My Art Deco Sapphire and Diamond Ring

April 18, 2015 By Sage 23 Comments

London was fabulous, and I arrived in this new decade of my life with all the panache I’d hoped for! Since most shops in Hatton Garden are closed on Sundays, I made do with a visit to Louis Vuitton ;-) I spent more than I should have on a bag I’ve long admired… and a little something for Robert, then we… Continue Reading

BIR Style Vegetable Samosas Recipe

Vegetarian Samosa Recipe Restaurant Style

Of the many things England is known for, curry is one of my favorites! There’s no curry like a British curry. I’ve dabbled in curries over the years, but my trips to England have turned curry into an obsession on par with my falafel obsession of years past. After many disappointing attempts at recreating British… Continue Reading

Visiting Cambridge for the Day

November 16, 2014 By Sage 4 Comments

My guys and I were just in England for a belated wedding celebration with our English family. Robert and I had a fabulous party, but we also got to spend a few quiet days alone with his (our?) parents. I tried my first ever (Quorn) Scotch egg, my mother in law baked her first ever… 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!
