Since I was about 8 years old I had therapy for my back. I did this until I was 13 -14 years old. I should have kept up with it, but you know being a teenager doesn’t really help. If I knew back then how much it would help me later in life, I maybe … Continue reading Dealing with back pain

Our Skincare Routine
I’ve always been aware of how important it is to take care of your skin. It also helped that my mum took care of her skin. I had a good example. As soon as I could afford it, I bought nice skin creams, and made sure to always remove my make-up before bed. I spent … Continue reading Our Skincare Routine
Pasta and broccoli salad with tahini dressing (including recipe)
Last week we moved from Niš to Skopje. It’s good to be back. Strange how a different country can feel like ‘home’, because that’s how Skopje feels to us. We were already quite lucky with the weather in Niš, and when we arrived in Skopje, the weather was also beautiful! Warm, sunny, and about 24 … Continue reading Pasta and broccoli salad with tahini dressing (including recipe)
My morning work-out
Working out is part of my life. Don’t worry, I’m not an obsessive fitness freak. Although, I was for a few years. In those years I worked out 6-7 days a week for 1 - 1½ hours per day. I was quite obsessive about it, because you know, we think we need to look a … Continue reading My morning work-out
Easy Summer Pasta
On our days off, we prefer not to spend too much time on cooking. Last week we had a lovely day out, did some shopping, walked around, and had a few beers. Lovely! When we got home, I looked at the stove and thought: ‘No! I can’t be bothered!’. But I also do not like … Continue reading Easy Summer Pasta
Meat substitutes
As you know, we’ve been trying to adopt a vegetarian lifestyle. Today I want to share our experiences with meat substitutes. A couple of months ago I made my own veggie burgers and they were really nice, but we don’t always want to eat the same, so we had to think of something else. Eggs! … Continue reading Meat substitutes
My journey on becoming a vegetarian – part 3
Becoming a vegetarian is not always easy. That’s why I want to take you on our journey and share our experiences, our struggles and even some recipes with you. It has been almost 3 months since we started this journey, and I have to be honest by saying that in the last month, I’ve been … Continue reading My journey on becoming a vegetarian – part 3
IBS
Ever since I can remember I’ve been having stomach cramps on and off and feeling nauseous. Not too long ago I had a flashback to when I was younger. I saw myself, in the middle of the night in the hallway, curled up on my knees, trying to make the pain go away. This position … Continue reading IBS
My journey on becoming a vegetarian – Part 2
Over a month in, and we are doing surprisingly well! I haven’t thought about meat or missed it at all. I never really cared for fish, so I knew that one was easy! I expected Paul to struggle a bit more (he really loves bacon and fish), but he is also doing very well. I … Continue reading My journey on becoming a vegetarian – Part 2
More oat cookies! (including recipe)
It is time for another baking adventure! I don’t know what it is with baking, but I always feel like I’ve achieved something. It’s not the same as when I've cooked something. Baking is more precise. If you get the measurements wrong, the whole recipe could fail! Which happened to me plenty of times! This … Continue reading More oat cookies! (including recipe)
