Ever since we’ve been travelling to Greece (last year and five years ago), since this quarantine started, I have been drawn again to cooking this super easy, super filling Mediterranean recipe that is like soul food for us Europeans. It was about time it had a little space on my blog and be presented to you properly, because now I am make it constantly.

It has everything you need: meat, vegetables, potatoes, eggs and a lot of nutmeg. I love, loooveee nutmeg. I think without it, this recipe is just not worth it. Let’s begin! And indulge.

De când ne petrecem vacanțele în Grecia (anul trecut și acum cinci ani), fiind în carantină, m-am regăsit în a găti această rețetă mediteraneană foarte populară, cu un gând de vacanță și aer de mare. Pe lângă faptul că ne ține 2-3 zile, este și foarte sățioasă, fără să ne crească kilogramele. Continue Reading…

It is the first time this year that I’m surrounded by nature. No big city lights. I have my little places where I like to shoot for my blog and they never disappoint. Too bad Winter is still here to stay, but I did see some magnolias along the way that are ready to pop. Today may be the first day of Spring, but I don’t see the cold leaving anytime soon. Big scarfs are still here to stay. Continue Reading…

Let me tell you something: you can be anyone’s Valentine. Those include, but are not privy, to: girlfriends, friends, mothers, brothers, colleagues, cousins, pets, boyfriends, best friends, fathers. In a nutshell those who are your person. Those who define you, make you and sometimes break you, for your own good.

I am not big on this day, as where I live we don’t actually celebrate it. Love should be celebrated everyday, if you ask me. But it’s a favorite time to get my make-up on and dress accordingly. I don’t do big bows and red hearts. I choose black. Although my heart is not. Continue Reading…

Budapest

December 1, 2019

I’ve been many, many, many times to Budapest. And every time with different people. It’s a beautiful capital city, with a wonderful night life. And it’s just three hours away from where I live.

Budapest hosts the famous Sziget Festival in the Summer and it has the famous ruin bars. Mostly this is why I’m drawn to it almost every year. If you are not a night owl like me, and prefer a much quieter life, you can enjoy the famous spas and pools and lounge all day long in the Gellért Thermal Baths. Continue Reading…

North Berwick, Scotland

November 17, 2019

After Leven and Anstruther (because I was on a beach high), we decided to take one more day out of Edinburgh and see North Berwick. If you don’t know, North Berwick is famous for its Seabird Center and in the summertime the puffins come here to spend time before retreating with all seabird wildlife to the nearest little islands on the North Sea. Those small islands near North Berwick are Bass Rock and Craigleith. Continue Reading…
