It’s finally Friday which means you all deserve a cocktail (or 2) and some serious R&R! Weekends in Germany are probably my favorite thing, especially when the weather gets warmer. Everyone is outside biking, grilling, having picnics, shopping and just genuinely enjoying time with family and friends. It’s so refreshing to see everyone outside relaxing and having fun.

The days are finally feeling longer, people start coming out of hibernation, and you can even feel the seasons change in the air. At the same time, we get …

Self-care is so important to our overall health, and it is something that many of us don’t consider a priority.

I kid you not, 9 times out of 10 his answer will be, “Let’s have tacos!”. While I will NEVER complain about having tacos (duh, they’re the best), I usually try to find alternative ways for us to …
