The secret is in the dough – a visit to London’s best pizza place “Mother”!

Louise — Fri, 15 Dec 2017 11:11:16 +0000

How lucky can one girl be? That's the question, I asked myself, when I recently found out, that my favourite pizza place in Copenhagen's übercool and trendy Meatpacking district had done the same as I did last year! Moved to London! YAY! A very warm welcome to "Mother"

When West meets East – my amazing day trip to Shoreditch

Louise — Tue, 18 Apr 2017 14:26:46 +0000

I can still remember the first time, Frenchie took me to Shoreditch! I was very new to the city and was only familiar with the West End, since this is where we live! It is my impression that you are either a West End girl or an East End girl! It is like an epic battle!

Have you ever imagined a place in London where you can eat, listen to music, dance, and even sing along with a live band - in the middle of the day? Well, I have and let me tell you... The place exists, and it was a great experience!

Happiness is … the first bite of a well cooked steak!

A few weeks ago Frenchie and I went out to celebrate our one year anniversary! Since we are both steak-lovers, we decided to book a table at one of our favourite restaurants in London, Hawksmoor Seven Dials. I have been to this place many times - and never ever have I been disappointed

Turn and face the strange… The Bowie by Duffy exhibition in Chelsea

Louise — Thu, 26 Jan 2017 11:26:50 +0000

I have a friend, Ann, who is a VERY big David Bowie fan, and I can thank her for passing her passion for the legendary singer on to me today! Earlier in my life, I really didn't care for Bowie's music - I guess I was more of pop-girl. But as time passed by and I went to university, I began to appreciate his music more and more.

Strolling around in Camden Town

This weekend I decided it was time to discover a part of London, that was completely unknown to me! I have a very good friend, who loves coming here - and she highly recommended me to jump on the tube and visit.... CAMDEN!

Everything looks better in colour – which is why, you should go to Notting Hill!

Louise — Wed, 18 Jan 2017 15:23:23 +0000

Notting Hill... I never knew about this wonderful place, until I saw the romantic film with Hugh Grant and Julia Roberts! I assume most tourists go for Trafalgar Square, Regent Street and Piccadilly Circus when visiting - but there is so much more to London! So my mission today is to make newcomers aware of this beautiful little part of my beloved city, that is so vivid and colourful that it shines even on a rainy Sunday.

There is no place like Carnaby Street

Louise — Tue, 06 Dec 2016 16:07:14 +0000

Discovering London can be quite a challenge, if you only have a few days to spend in this marvellous city. It is so rich in history, that it can be difficult to know, where to begin for a newcomer! There is however a very special place, that always makes my guests from abroad very excited - and this place is Carnaby Street

Welcome to Shoreditch

Louise — Fri, 21 Oct 2016 16:27:28 +0000

So... I always considered myself quite a "West end girl", but that certainly changed, when Frenchie forced me out of my natural habitat to go and have a look at Shoreditch
