We are two Aquarius living in the Alps.
Foraging is an amazing experience - you go for a walk in the forest, and if you are lucky, you find something delicious that you can bring home. Nature is that incredible, we just have to return to our roots and try to be more self-sufficient instead of running to the shop for everything.
Following our dream to become self-sufficient, we are developing our garden project, planting many different vegetables, just to see what we can grow on our land. After so many years living in a flat, having a place where we can grow our food is a huge change and also a huge challenge to get used to all that hard physical work. :)
Our Honeysuckle shrub looks like an orange cloud. It just blossomed, so we want to share its beauty and a few maintenance tips if you decide to plant one. Their family counts 180 species, definitely plenty of options to choose from.
You know what it's like when you go to a garden center and see all these beautiful flower seedlings; you just can’t resist buying a few because you automatically imagine a spot in your garden where they will look great. Well … we are the same; we just love adding more flowers to our garden; the more, the prettier.
After installing the new windows last year, our old house renovation continues. Will the house collapse? We have to knock down a wall on the first floor, but it's a 40-year-old house, and we are not sure if the house construction is stable enough.
