Starting a new blog with a “Hello, world…” feels just right, doesn’t it?
I’m Cece, the person behind this blog, and I cannot wait to share my tips, tricks, and daily challenges with you. In case you haven’t noticed just yet, this blog is all about living smart without giving up the things you love.
Who am I?
I am a Danish woman, married to an amazing man, and we have two kids, who all inspired me to start this blog. I wanted to prioritize spending time with them over being stuck in a job I didn’t enjoy. It all began during my maternity leave, and I realized that a traditional 9-5 job wasn’t the path for me. So, we started downsizing. Truth be told, we have been doing it for quite some time, with various reasons like studies, maternity leave, and job-hunting always cropping up. We eventually mastered it, and now it feels completely natural. It’s a way of life that I want to pass on to you.
I’m a creative soul at heart. I adore sewing, DIYs, knitting, baking, cooking, tending to my garden, and much more. Naturally, these will be recurring topics on the blog since they offer unique ways to save money while enjoying creative pursuits. It’s really therapeutic for me.
How did i get here?
Living in Denmark can be quite expensive, with high taxes and soaring living expenses, especially after the COVID-19 pandemic and the energy crisis. Despite these challenges, my family and I do our best to save money, so we can prioritize spending on things that truly matter to us.
I’m over the moon about this, and I can’t wait to share everything with you. I hope sharing my experiences will inspire others, and I welcome your comments and suggestions for future topics to discuss.
