Welcome to Fernweh Blonde
Hi I’m Fernweh Blonde and welcome to my blog!
I chose this name for my blog because 1) I’m blonde, and 2) because fernweh is part of who I am. It’s the desire to go to a far away place, and that’s something I will never get enough of.
This started out as a means of expression, and it’s turned into something of a lifestyle blog covering everything from travel, writing, as well as day-to-day experiences.
I hope you enjoy – be sure to like, subscribe and follow!
Longings for travels abroad

Tricked by the weather
The weekend was glorious. I opened my bleary eyes to see the sun pouring through the blinds. I cracked the window and warm air slid into the room – bliss! I broke out a t-shirt from the confines of my wardrobe for the first time in months, and I dared to go out without aContinue reading “Tricked by the weather”
Sunshine finally!
I woke up this morning, for the first time in months, to see sunlight pouring through the window. It set me up for a positive start. I washed my face, got dressed, went downstairs and made muesli. Muesli – one of those foods that you keep thinking you should eat, but as soon as youContinue reading “Sunshine finally!”
The joy of tidying
So yesterday I did a major spring clean. And I mean major. I took everything off the kitchen counter, out of the cupboards, bleached the loo and washed the floors. And oh did it take ages! Plus I felt exhausted afterwards. But at the same time I felt and overwhelming sense of achievement. My heartContinue reading “The joy of tidying”
