I was recently invited to the opening of Point A Hotel Edinburgh. We headed to the heart of the city for a night to check out the hotel for ourselves and to celebrate the launch of their latest addition to the Point A Hotels budget boutique brand. It opened its doors just in time for […]
When my friend Martha from Mollify Minds shared and article about #Januhairy on facebook, I wanted to make a joke about all my leg fur I have anyway to keep me warm in cold Scotland. It ended with me agreeing to Januhairy. A movement where you don’t shave for a month to empower women, make […]
Happy new year everyone! I was thinking about what new year topics I could discuss over here, maybe a list of things I want to change or that we should not change at all and tell you guys how good my last year was and you can invent yourself new every day. The truth is, […]

English below. Ein Jahr in Edinburgh- Was hat sich für mich geändert? Es fühlt sich an als wäre die tränenreiche und hektische Verabschiedung an diesem grauen, regnerischen Wintertag gerade einmal ein paar Monate her. Doch ich bin mittlerweile schon seit einem Jahr in Schottland. Ein Jahr zwischen Dudelsäcken, Verständigungsproblemen und £3 Meal Deals. Die […]
