A Childfree Blog – About Sage & Simple

I’m Sage, a free spirit who followed the goose from the Connecticut suburbs to Europe and created the life I’ve always wanted!

In 2010, I scored my dream job and the chance to move to Europe! Rural Denmark wasn’t my first choice — but being a restless Aries, I just had to say “yes!” So I packed my favorite things into a shipping container, grabbed my faithful feline companion, Opie, and followed the goose across the Atlantic to see if Denmark really is the happiest country in the world!

I wrote about it — then InterNations and ExpatsBlog recognized Sage & Simple as Denmark’s Top Expat Living Blog!

I eventually followed the goose right out of corporate life into to the gig economy. Since then, I’ve been working as a copywriter and editor for some of the world’s biggest brands — and some that set my soul on fire.

After ditching my commute, I also ditched the countryside and moved to Aarhus — Denmark’s cultural capital and second-largest city. When I decided to make this sojourn more permanent, I bought myself a quirky old apartment in the city centre (yes, the bathroom really is in the back stairway). I’ve since installed a clawfoot tub in my bedroom — you can read about it in the New York Times :)

In 2018, I decided to stop blogging and follow the goose on the DL. The goose led me back to Sage & Simple in late 2021, but fate had other plans. My business blasted off, leaving me no time to write for myself. For now, I’m following the goose into new career opportunities. I might return… or I might not.

Time will tell :)

Go confidently in the direction of your dreams. Live the life you’ve imagined.

~ Henry David Thoreau

The “goose” isn’t about lacking direction or purpose. It’s about being free to explore (or not explore) opportunities as they come along — living the fullest life possible on my terms, without worrying about anyone else.

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!
