Christmas in Lockdown Happy New Year everybody! I hope you are all keeping well and had a great Christmas despite the circumstances that evolved at the time! I just thought I would pitch in a quick reflection of my Christmas and year. I planned on heading down to my hometown for Christmas, as always. The […]

New year, a new chance at a better year? After a very unusual 2020, for many 2021 might seem like a chance to do all the things we could not this year. But really, looking back, to me 2020 was one of my favourite years yet. Either way, I still hope you have at least some […]

I am the first to admit that I have a major sweet tooth, and probably spend way to much money on chocolate at the shops. This past semester, with more time in my flat, I decided to try baking more and thereby avoid storebought treats. I found a couple cookie recipes that I really enjoyed […]

Here are a few of my favorite books that I recommend to all my friends 🙂 Looking for Alaska by John Green  This book is in my opinion the best one by John Green. It accurately represents teen love at its best and worst. It does not shy away from subjects such as drug abuse […]
