About Me




 Hey there! This is me: Maisy (pronounce: macy). A wildflower, creative spirit and kitchen mess maker.

I live in Northern Germany with my partner J and a bunch of "roommates", such as our kombucha Mariechen, our sourdough starter Puffy, and about 50 indoor plants!

I'm happiest when I'm hiking through nature – preferably forests – or stuck between the pages of a book, a milky chai tea in one hand, a chocolate chip cookie in the other.

I started this blog in 2013 when I was studying for my bachelor's degree in creative writing (yes, there's a bachelor's degree for that 🤪), and ever since then it has been a place where I "collect" pieces of my many passions in life, such as writing, crafting, healing, and exploring my own path in life.


WHAT YOU WILL FIND ON THIS BLOG

  • easy & (mostly) healthy recipes that are vegan or plant-based
  • homemade natural beauty ideas
  • foraging wild herbs
  • simple DIY projects which are often zero waste
  • my experience with alternative holistic healing practices, such as herbal medicine and other natural remedies
  • and a few other bits and bobs :)

It should be disclaimed that I am in no way an expert in medicine, wildcrafting or even entertainment – but I am eager to learn all that I can about any topics surrounding homesteading, herbs and healing.
