Moroccan Veggie ‘Tagine’ with couscous (including recipe)

8 August 20225 August 2022 / Renee / 3 Comments

I know, the name of this recipe is a bit misleading, because I didn’t prepare this dish in a tagine, but if you have one, it’s recommended to use it! As you know we don’t always have the right kitchen equipment or ingredients, because of our travels, but it forces me to be creative.   When … Continue reading Moroccan Veggie ‘Tagine’ with couscous (including recipe)

Beach time!

28 July 202227 July 2022 / Renee / Leave a comment

It's our weekend and there's only one place we want to go to: the beach! As I am sitting on the beach in Vlora, looking around, it makes me happy to see everyone is enjoying themselves again. After the many lockdowns we had to endure, it's time to enjoy the Summer again as we used … Continue reading Beach time!

Just keep swimming

25 July 202224 July 2022 / Renee / Leave a comment

Since I was young, I have had a love-hate relationship with water. On one hand I loved playing in the pool, pretending I was a mermaid, on the other hand I got fearful as soon as the water got deeper. There is something about that sensation of not being able to touch the ground, and … Continue reading Just keep swimming

A few snapshots of Vlora – Albania

21 July 202218 July 2022 / Renee / 4 Comments

At the moment, I’m not really active with my photography, because it’s just too hot! The average temperature in Albania is around 35 Celsius. But that doesn’t mean that I never take photos anymore. Currently we live in an apartment with a big roof terrace. Every evening we see the most beautiful sunsets! These days … Continue reading A few snapshots of Vlora – Albania

Soft Tortilla Wraps (including recipe)

18 July 202217 July 2022 / Renee / Leave a comment

My cooking is slowly improving, and it makes it easier to try and make new things. As vegetarians, options can be a bit limited when you want to save a bit of money. Because let’s face it, we live in a world where unhealthy food is often cheaper than healthy food. The same goes for … Continue reading Soft Tortilla Wraps (including recipe)

Paul also really likes my cooking and that is a great motivator to keep going and trying new … Continue reading Garlic Naan (including recipe)

My journey on becoming vegetarian – Part 5

11 July 20229 July 2022 / Renee / Leave a comment

Five months in, and I’m going to be completely honest with you. We ate meat! Not a lot, only one time, but I feel guilty. Why do I feel like that? It was my own choice to do this. I don’t owe anybody any explanation, but somehow it felt wrong to eat meat again. Let … Continue reading My journey on becoming vegetarian – Part 5

Meals with something extra

7 July 20226 July 2022 / Renee / 2 Comments

Today I’m going to share some of my experiences with food in other countries. Not any food. No! Food with something extra! Mmmmmmm…. The story begins in Greece. It was 2001. We (my first boyfriend and I) went to Crete. I still remember the name of the town, because it was so weird: Koutouloufari. It … Continue reading Meals with something extra

Spicy chickpea balls (including recipe)

4 July 202230 June 2022 / Renee / 1 Comment

After eating lentil burgers and homemade seitan for the last couple of months, it was time to try something else as a meat substitute. For months I’ve seen this recipe on Instagram, but never tried it. Until today and it was yummy! I can’t take credit for this recipe, but I did alter it a … Continue reading Spicy chickpea balls (including recipe)

Sleepless nights

30 June 202219 June 2022 / Renee / 2 Comments

Do you know those days or sometimes even weeks when it’s so hard to fall asleep? Or when you wake up in the middle of the night and you can’t fall back to sleep anymore? Paul and I always alternate. When I’m restless and can’t sleep, he comfortably snores his head off next to me, … Continue reading Sleepless nights
