    Best Pizza in Berlin?

    More cheeeeeeese!! I’m not the biggest fan of pizza. Maybe I ate too much of it or something, but I can’t really get excited about a pizza at a restaurant or takeaway. Then Jason came into my life and started hand-making the base and I got to do the toppings. Now that’s my kind of pizza. I don’t want a load of dough and crust. I want a thin base to hold lots of delicious flavours. I need to be swimming in cheese and I don’t want to chew constantly, I just want it to almost slide down into my stomach. So when a group of us were out and…

    Our first ever AirBnB guests

    I feel good… We knew from the moment we saw their happy smiling faces that it was going to be fun meeting Tony and Wilma. From their message that read “We’re on a four-month European trip for our 40th wedding anniversary…” we knew they would be the perfect first guests for us. We were definitely a little nervous, but mostly just excited and happy that someone had picked our apartment over all the others. We have guests all the time.
