Welcome to Our Blog – Where East Meets West—In Love, Life & Recipes

Hi there, and welcome! 👋✨

​

We’re Jens (from the land of pretzels and sausages — Germany) and Gelie (from the islands of sunshine and smiles — the Philippines). Somehow, God decided to match us across thousands of miles… and now here we are, navigating life, love, and the occasional “Wait, what does that word mean?” moment.

​

This blog is our happy little corner where we share it all:

• The meals we cook (sometimes masterpieces, sometimes… let’s just call them “learning experiences”)

• Our gardening wins and fails

• Adventures near and far — because exploring is our kind of therapy

​

If you’re looking for travel stories, recipes with a twist, or just proof that a German–Filipino love story can thrive on laughter, curiosity, and good food… you’re in the right place.

​

​

With love (and probably snacks),

Jens & Gelie 🥨🌸
