A Peek Into: The Handmaid’s Tale

handmaids7

At first glance at the trailer I knew I had to follow this TV-show. This was originally a bestseller novel written by Margaret Atwood back in the mid 1980’s. I haven’t read it myself but I recognise her name and remember having heard good things about her work. This show has got me hooked from the first episode. It’s all so interestingly infuriating – what is happening in the show that is – and although I can never ever see this happening in our world, just imagine if it did (I guess some would argue that it’s close to how it used to be back before women’s rights and all). Anyway, I find it to be a very intriguing story.

Five TV-Shows Worth Watching #1

CRAZY EX-GIRLFRIEND (Netflix)

Rebecca, the main character, is absolutely crazy, but in the most adorable way. She has a great career in a law firm in New York, but one day she bumps into her old summer camp boyfriend Josh and realizes she isn’t happy. She basically has what I would call a mental break down; she quits her job, moves across the country to West Covina, California (Weeeeeest coooooooviiiiinaaaaaa) to find Josh. It’s a comedy musical show. Yes, musical! And I love it. I love the songs, they are hilarious. Can only recommend this show! (ps. the third season get’s released this month)

Okay so I haven’t been the biggest fan of Miley Cyrus’ last songs (or her crazy twerking years). But this song, Malibu, is really cute. I really like it. And I also like that it’s a love song she wrote for Liam, how sweet is that? It’s definitely a catchy tune at least and it’s now on my current playlist.

LIFE LATELY ♡

April, 2017.

Oh April you were wonderful. At Easter I went to England to spend time with Matt and his family. It was a great vacation and I get wait to get back there. It was also the month I finally got my hands on some products from ‘The Ordinary’, which is an inexpensive skincare brand from Canada I believe? I had dinner dates at my place with Maiken. And my group at uni and I finally got to do interviews for our project. The interview was right next to Amalienborg (the queen’s castle – photos below). I also went to the fish monger quite a few times this month as I try to eat more fish.

Dindins with Bae

The other day one of my best friends Maiken, who I call Bae, invited me for dinner ? I hadn’t seen her for a couple a weeks, so it was really nice to see her again. We had a good ol’ catch up and some juicy burgers. Maiken and I met at uni four years ago when we both enrolled in the same programme. She is such a wonderful person and I feel lucky to have her in my life. Anyway, we went to Cafe Vivaldi on Frederiksberg. It’s the first time I’ve visited that café, I mean, I’ve been to some of their other locations before, but first time here. It’s very cozy, and I can safely recommend it. It’s also very price friendly, which is always good ? 

Quick lunch at Wagamama Frederiksberg

A few years ago my dad introduced me to Wagamama. The very first time I tried it I wasn’t impressed, I mean it was alright and such but I wasn’t sold yet. Then I went back with him and my sister again, and then another time and suddenly I really liked it 😅 Fast forward a few years and we’re in 2017 – now.

Near my university in Frederiksberg there happens to be a Wagamama. In fact there are only two Wagamama’s in Denmark, and they’re both in Copenhagen. One is in Tivoli and the other, as just mentioned, in Frederiksberg. The other day one of my lectures were cancelled, so instead of just going back home I decided to take myself out for lunch.
