Vlogtober Daily Vlog #24

In this daily vlog we had to combine quite a bunch of days.

This was the week we really wanted to get some things done around our apartment so we ended up not filming a lot while cleaning everything but afterwards we recorded some longer talking vlogs.

We even went out which is something we didn't do much this month. It felt like we were hibernating on some days.

But at least we enjoyed our Netflix trial month to the fullest, we also decided it would be a good idea to continue using Netflix so we will buy it after this month is over.

We also had some of the last warm days this week we fear and even though autumn and winter have some perks we like spring and summer better. It's just so expensive to turn on the heater.

Some more footage of the 21st will be in our next vlog. Somehow we managed to film so much on that day that it didn't fit all into one video. So if you want to see how our nails turned out stay tuned.

Vlogtober London Part 2 #23

Finally we can share the second part of our London Vlog with you. We encountered some problems after we threw the video into our cutting program and the picture didn't show up. It's been nearly a year since we edited anything from the camcorder so we simply forgot how to work our way around this problem. Bless our new camera.
But enough of that and more of the beautiful city of London. Editing and watching this video again made us crave going to London so much. Right now the place we want to go to the most, next to Korea obviously, is Cardiff though. We went there in May 2013 and we just really want to go there again, it was one of the most beautiful places we've ever visited.


Something else this video did to us was that we now are really looking forward to the Christmas time. We can't wait to see all the beautiful decorations, even if they are not as impressive here as they are in this video.


In conclusion we must say we are glad we took all of this footage and didn't work with it for now. It made us reappreciate our friendship and all the things we already did together. Making memories like this and even having videos from that time to look at again is something we really learned to appreciate.

Vlogtober OOTD Dinner With Friends #22

We put together another outfit of the day for you guys!

This time we were invited for dinner so we thought we could get a bit more fancy. In our daily vlog #27 you can see us actually going to the dinner.





The things we liked best about our outfits were our shoes and our necklaces. The jewelery is from a brand called Revival London and for all of you Germans out there you can buy it at Karstadt. To us it looked a lot like Top Shop jewelery just way cheaper so we definetly want to look into it again.

Vlogtober A trip to the Zoo #21




Going to the zoo is one of the best ways to spend time in our opinion so of course we go as often as possible.

Especially the small Dortmund Zoo holds a special place in Maren's memories since it's the closest to her home town and she still remembers going there with her cousins and even on school trips.

This summer we only made it to one zoo but we were lucky enough to go with one of our best friends, we had incredible good weather and the chance to try out our new beautiful lens.




This is one of our very first vlog videos so bear with us when it gets shaky, we tried to make the best out of the footage we took. We really want to go back there but it's getting too cold for zoo in our opinion.

And of course we had to share a beautiful instagram selfie as well. If you want to follow us on instagram just check out our profiles on the sidebar.

And afterwards it got even better when we decided to go and get some real burgers!



Until a few years ago Maren was one of the biggest anti-burger people you could find around, now she loves them. If you ever get a chance to go to a Roadstop restaurant we would tell you to go for it.

After stuffing our faces we went back home, relaxed a bit from walking around so much and just talked while having some coffee. This must be the perfect way to spend a day in our opinion. How would your perfect day look like?

Vlogtober Massive Korean Stationary Haul #20

As you may be able to tell, today we finally got around to film a haul for you!

Next to everything else it's also impossible not to binge buy tons of cute stationary.

First of all, stationary is rediculous cheap in Korea, even though you'll probably get picky at one point, trust us when you come back you'll realize even what you considered 'expensive' is dirt cheap compared to what you are facing.

Next to that the designs are just to die for. Do you have a favourite animal? Rest assured you will probably find at least three different kinds of sationary featuring it. Do you like buildings/dolls/travelthemed things? No problem either. With what we chose we were kind of all over the place but you could probably stick to a theme just as easy.

Everything you can see in the photo above was around 1,000 each, if not less. Think about it. All your friends asking you to bring something from Korea for them? Stationary might we a wise, cheap and most probably small slash weight friendly option.

In Germany most of the time you find simple blue/black/red pens with boring designs. In Korea you can find the cutest designs and then they also come in every colour you could ever imagine! Plus some of the pens have super thin tips which we really do like.

Even the most boring things come in such cute packages that you can't help but needing to buy one. This brigh blue paper-collective-thingy might be the most 'boring' purchase out of all of them.

Something we only found out about after we already lived in Korea for at least a month were goodie bags. Which basically means a buch of stuff for a really good price. The photo above shows everything (except for an earphone winder) we got for 15.000₩. Can't really go wrong there ...



Now the above shown is a love it or hate it item. We hated Choo Choo Cat the first time we saw it and it still has a creepy vibe to it but for all of your friends who like cats this might be the perfect present. At least you'll have something to laugh about!

Something else we couldn't stop buying were stickers. And trust us we actually have enough stickers to probably replace our wallpaper with them. But with once again 1,000 per sheet we couldn't really stop us. Plus most of the time those packages come with two sheets so we ended up splitting those up with Greta. Which made it possible for us to buy EVEN MORE different sets ...

 The last thing that really flashed us were masking tapes / decorative tapes however you want to call them. All of the above were bought at Daiso and each one of them did cost 1,000. Sorry to talk about Germany again but masking tape is rediculous expensive over here and most of the time you don't get as pretty of designs in our opinion ...

And this concludes our massive haul. We hope you enjoyed it, we hope you found some inspiration on what to buy when you get the chance to go to Korea and if you have more questions please don't hesitate to ask us.

By the way most of the things shown in this haul were bought at Artbox, Daiso and Penpia, which is a stationary store in Sinchon, but you can find way too many stationary stores plastered all over Seoul.

Vlogtober More Daily Life #17

This blog starts right after our Hamburg vlog stops, even on the same day, but it didn't feel right to include this in the vacation vlog as well so here we go ~


Since Maren's mom went on a vacation the day after we came back we had to meet up for breakfast! They really make the best crossaints where Maren used to live, even though crossaints aren't good for us. If you have to sin at least do it with the best. We could probably write an ode to those crossaints ...

We are really sorry that most of our time in October we seem to stay at home, watch Netflix and sometimes eat cookies. Does any of you share our intrests there?

We also started working on catching up with our Youtube accounts, making them pretty and everything. We are not done yet but it was a step in the right direction. Next to the computer we also build up the addition to our new Billy IKEA shelf ...

And then you even get a small OOTD so if you feel like spending a few days with us witnessing all of the above why not watch our video. Afterwards you should also kilck the subscribe button for more every day adventures!

Vlogtober Get Ready With Me Lisa #16

And here as promised is Lisa's get ready with me.

This video shows our daily make up routine so we will probably show you a bit more fancy make up in the future but for now we thought it would be nice to show you the products we use on a day to day basis.

We really hope you enjoy this video, if you haven't check out Maren's GRWM. It's on the blog or on our Youtube Channel. Tell us if you like these kinds of videos let us know and we'll try to record more of them in the future!

Vlogtober Get Ready With Me Maren #15

We thought we should at least once during Vlogtober share our make up routine with you! There might be a few repeat items Lisa and I both use but we are sure you'll still find a lot of things we do differently.

Most of the products we use are Korean cosmetics and make up but some other things are also German with a stray MAC eyeliner thrown in there. If you have any questions about certain products we use just let us know.



This video was filmed while we were still in Hamburg so you have the most natural lighting we could get. That's a nice plus for a make up video too, isn't it?

Vlogtober Hamburg Part 2 #14

As promised here is part two of our vacation vlog in Hamburg! The mentioned get ready with me video should be up tomorrow in case you are interested in it!


We are so glad everytime we have time to spend with our friend and Lyza's family so it could sound a little boring to you but to us it's awesome catching up time ...


Just to give you a heads up on what we watched in Hamburg. We nearly watched all of the first season of orange is the new black which is very enjoyable. When we met our friend we watched bad neighbours wich is a ... comedy? It was nice, Maren especially enjoyed the Zac Efron this movie had to offer. If you like him too this might be a choice for you too. After that we watched Malificent which was really nice as well even though we did probably expect more from the movie that we got in the end. Nice plot twist though! And then we also watched Cloudy with a chance of meatballs 2 which has AWESOME character design but lacks a bit plot wise in our opinion.


Next to that we think our next TV should be a Smart TV because he had a lot of fun with the one Lyza's parents own! Sadly we don't think our internet connection would be strong enough to support it.

Thank you for watching our vlog and make sure to come around in a few days to see what else we got up to!
