Danish Xmas Tree

Earlier this week, Robert and I made the executive decision not to have a Christmas tree.  This past month has been hectic for both of us work-wise, then we were away at the Hamburg Christmas Markets, and when we finally got around to thinking about a tree, it was cold, rainy and windy, and we… Continue Reading

I bought a poncho!

June 20, 2013 By Sage 2 Comments

I haven’t the slightest idea how or when I’m going to wear this…  But for 25 kr. (less than $4), how could I not adopt it?

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!
