Quinoa – Gold of the Incas

Quinoa…..is one of the best sources of protein and actually a seed but can be prepared like whole grains such as rice – cooking time is usually 10-15 minutes. It is gluten-free and low-fat and can be used with most meals including breakfast. It can aid in lowering cholesterol, is a great source of Iron, Magnesium and Calcium. The fibre content is exceptional including 9 essential amino acids, which is extremely beneficial to everyone especially vegetarians and vegans.

Here is one of my favorite recipes :

Firstly you need to prepare the quinoa: choose the amount in a pan, cover with water or vegetable broth and boil until soft – usually around 15 mintues, sieve and leave to cool.Chop up one banana, add some pumpkin seeds, dried cranberries and coconut oil into a saucepan and heat medium to low.  After add some almond milk and the previously prepared Quinoa.  You can add your favorite nuts, cinnamon, vanilla extract and coconut flakes and stir for a couple of minutes. Just before taking off the heat add some hemp or chia seeds.

Bon appétit!

Poppy and minimalistic – The Prizeotel in Bremen

Today I would like to introduce you to the ‚Prizeotel‚ – the first budget designer hotel in Bremen!

It has been voted as one of the 7 most charming and stylish hotels under 100 euro in Germany and has an outstanding design affordable to all!

It opened up in February 2009 and already got numerous awards- for example the Design price „Red Dot Award” in the „Architecture and Interior Design” category.

The first second I got there I recognized the Pop-Art-style, which immediately reminded me of the ‚nhow hotel‘ in Berlin.

And…surprise, surprise: after asking the friendly woman behind the reception desk I got to know what I was already suspecting! The modern hallmark is the same! It’s the one of the world renowned Karim Rashid!

Normally, to be honest – I prefer darker colors and warm materials! But the Prizeotel with its 127 fully air-conditioned rooms still serves exactly the needs of cost-effective business and city travelers.

So if you are not afraid of colors but you love details, like an ilamp with integrated speakers and an iphone connection, you should definitely check out this amazing place with the large open and white spaces and the accents of strong positive colors!

The lobby area encompasses a bar, internet station, buffet and outdoor terrace.


Upstairs, the tactile wallpaper coats the hallway. Custom carpets along the corridors display room numbers.

The rooms were designed following the guiding ‚have less but better furniture‘. They provide all the needs and details of a high end boutique hotel while creating a unique experience and a high level of sleeping comfort!

It also has high quality bathrooms with rainforest shower heads.

The Prizehotel is a perfect hotel for individualist who are feeling home wherever they are able to take their smartphones and their trolley bags – and who are bored with traditional hotels!

Further locations are already planned for 2013 in Hamburg and Hannover and afterwards in Berlin, Düsseldorf, Cologne and Munich.
