Getting my groove back…

Divorced and Alone

Two months ago, I thought there were few things worse than being (twice) divorced and alone. Now I can tell you that there are far worse things than being divorced and alone. Being married to that arrogant pint-sized man-child and all of the bullshit and baggage that came with him was far worse than being… Continue Reading

Five American Foods Expats Miss (or I do, anyway)

September 19, 2017 By Sage 20 Comments

American Foods Expats Miss

In less than 48 hours, I’m going back to the States for the first time in over 6 years! It’ll be a short stay (practically a fly-by), but I’m looking forward to seeing my sister, and my nieces who were kids when I left but who are now twenty-somethings with jobs and boyfriends and cars!… Continue Reading

A Birthday Trip & An Art Deco Wedding Ring

August 25, 2016 By Sage 13 Comments

French Art Deco Wedding Ring

Robert and I have our birthday traditions. We travel somewhere fabulous for mine, and stay home and eat cake with his kids for his. This year, we sort of reversed roles… I spent my birthday driving around rural Denmark in a moving van picking up mid-century Danish furniture and Robert spent his sailing around the Baltic sea! When… Continue Reading

Five Things I Miss About America

May 1, 2016 By Sage 27 Comments

Things I Miss About America

I grew up in Connecticut with easy access to New York City, but Europe? Europe was where I’d always wanted to be. I thought that European food was better, that the clothes and cosmetics were fancier, the houses were more interesting, and that in general, life was better and more elegant across the Pond. During my past… Continue Reading

Norwegian Epic Aft Balcony… OMG!

January 27, 2016 By Sage 21 Comments

Negative Norwegian Epic Review

One day shortly before Christmas, I got an email touting a last minute Mediterranean cruise deal that was too good to pass up. Robert and I had a fabulous time in the Norwegian Fjords last summer, and we thought some time on the Mediterranean was just the thing to help us get over the disappointment of the failed England move… 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

We’re off on a Norwegian Fjords cruise from Copenhagen!

June 4, 2015 By Sage 1 Comment

Norwegian fjords cruise from Copenhagen

A few years ago, I took a Norwegian fjords cruise from Copenhagen on a tight budget… i.e. I smuggled booze onboard and stayed in an inside cabin. The experience kind of sucked, but the landscapes were the most beautiful natural scenery I’ve ever caught sight of, and I’ve wanted a do-over in a balcony cabin ever since…… 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!
