We live so close to landschaftsparkduisburgnord and it’s been years since we’ve been back! But this time, we discovered that you can actually spend the night inside the factory at the DJH! 🤩 📍DJH Jugendherberge Duisburg Landschaftspark jugendherbergen_im_rheinland #djh

Seven years ago… I bought a German house from the 1960’s and decided to flip it 😅🇨🇦🇩🇪 … thinking it would be easy. Nobody warns you about the Bauamt. The permits. What you’re even allowed to touch without a Genehmigung… And don’t get me started on finding reputable and

I’ve tried 3 pottery studios in Düsseldorf and the_clay_company is the one I am totally going back to. 🤩 The 4 of us were invited for a 3-hour Schnupperkurs and for three whole hours nobody touched their phone. We were actually present. 🥹💛 Walked out with 3 masterpieces I

Sure… you’ve got hair salon house calls in Düsseldorf, but none quite like the one and only freelance.schymick 🥹💛 Many of you know and love him from his original salon, not only for their quality of cuts and styling, but because he opened his arms for expats of all

I’ve always wanted to do this! 🤩 How old do you think your skin would tell you, you are? 🙈 You can get this fact analysis done including a full customised plan if you’d like at aesthetikraum_duesseldorf - Lili is super sweet, talented, and the space is beautiful!

It’s a political statement isn’t it? You choose air conditioning = you’re supporting global warming. I get it, I jumped on board the whole “no air condition, it makes you sick” bandwagon when moving to Germany… but each and every summer as time goes on has been bringing

I’ll admit I was skeptical before going into my first cacao ceremony. I’ve never tried ceremonial cacao before and had no idea what effect it would have on my body. What I found was a gentle pause from everyday life with some incredible women who I’ve never met and yet who

We’ve don’t only FINALLY have a DIY café in Düsseldorf but it’s also super family friendly 🥹💛 Have you been to buntii_diy yet?! #diycafe #dusseldorf #diyart

Have you been to a DJH before? If you’re planning on trying it out this summer, jugendherberge_xanten and djh_burgblankenheim were hands down our top 2 favourites! There’s a ton more worth visiting as well, and hopefully we will be able to share a few more with you this

In Canada you’re rewarded for paying with card, in Germany you’re penalised. 🫠 Most stores don’t accept credit cards, and if they do… there’s always some sort of consequence (at least with the smaller shops/restaurants). And if it’s not a financial consequence, it’s a nasty

Because my addition to viral cake making reels made me wonder… how hard can decorating a cake really be? 😅❤️ (spoiler alert: it was way harder than I thought!) Thank you abigail.loves.cake for this super cute vintage cake workshop hosted at cafethiopia_dus 🍰 If you’re

I have to admit I totally underestimate the planetarium in Erkrath 💛 and was sOoo excited to discover such a unique way to spend rainy days… Learning about the galaxy, our solar system and the horoscopes signs we see in the sky was magical, but it’s what I went in

[lifeindus @LifeInDUS]

I’ve been sharing tips in/around Düsseldorf for how long?! And it’s taken me this long to finally get here. I’m honestly a bit disappointed in myself that I didn’t take the kids sooner 😅 They’ve been begging to go back to watch a movie on the planetarium ceiling soon and

[lifeindus @LifeInDUS]

Tell me I’m not the only one who took THIS LONG to discover one of the coolest things to do on a rainy day near Düsseldorf? I’m actually embarrassed to admit it 😅 Have you ever been to the Planetarium Erkrath before? Any tips on which workshops or films to watch there?!
