  • I've lived in Scandinavia for 4 years now, and two years ago we moved to Denmark and bought our dream cottage. We were looking for a small, simple cottage with a garden, surrounded by nature. We found it on the first day of searching and have been working on it ever since. It's a lot of work to renovate everything on our property but we're in love with our cottage!

      I met my hubby on the Sea Shepherd campaign in the Faroe Islands in 2014! We became good friends and when my relationship with Ryan ended, I told my current hubby that I had feelings for him. That was back in 2016. We spent a while planning on how to do it, because he's Danish and I lived in Canada, and I eventually moved to Sweden and then Denmark. Now we have this quaint little cottage here 😊

      You're welcome! We definitely have worked hard and it's all been worth it! Honestly, the process of buying a house here is exactly like anywhere else. You just get a mortgage from the bank. The cost is very low because we live in a specific area that is very rural and meant for summer homes.

      Largely. I use the curly girl method now, which does include a lot of products for the average person, but I use very little. I found that I have to use conditioner with the hard water in Denmark, otherwise my hair gets so brittle that it literally breaks off in my hands. It was damaged for a long time before I started using conditioner. Other than that, I use homemade hair gel from flax seeds, and coconut oil, but that's all.
