I speak and sign food ...

Hi everybody, 

                       

with this blog post I would like to show you how a recipe recommendation looks like in Austrian sign language. I uploaded a video where I signed a typical Tyrolean recipe called "Zochane Kiachln mit Sauerkraut". It is a simple meal we cook on holidays like for harvest festival. It is made out of yeast dough that gets formed round, thin in the middle and thicker on the edge, and then it gets deep fried in oil or fat. We eat it hearty with sauerkraut or sweet with jam and powdered sugar. In my video I describe in Austrian sign language how I cooked it together with my dad for Christmas. To make it clear for you all I laid the spoken English translation over the video. If anyone wants to try it out I wrote the ingredients list below!!

Ingredients (for 8 Kiachln)

·         300 g four

·         150 ml warm milk

·         15 g yeast

·         1 tablespoon sugar

·         20 ml oil

·         3 eggs

·         1 pinch of salt

·         Fat to fry

I hope you all enjoyed the different way of get cooking advice.

Wish you Happy Easter!

Bye everybody ;)

Who am I?

Hi everybody, 

I think the two things in my room or lets say in my life that tell most about me and my personality are my world map poster and my coffee machine. That maybe sounds a bit strange but I looked closely at it and I realized I set my heart on these two things. Whenever I moved during the last years, they helped me feel home very fast.

About 11 years ago my dad gave me the world map poster on a pin board as a present for my 21^st Birthday. From that time on I started to pin all the places in the world I have already been or I wanted to travel to. Thereby I became more and more passionate about traveling. I have been on many exiting trips till now and I am not finished jet. At the moment I am planning to go on a round the world trip.

The second thing that is always with me is my beloved coffee machine. I think the reason is obvious I am seriously addicted to coffee! But what does that tell about who I am? Well, I am everything else then a morning person and a morning without a coffee or two is no good one for me. It’s comparable to how important chocolate is for some people. There is nothing better than enjoy a good coffee after a hard day.

So to sum it up I would say I am 31 year old, English and Austrian sign language student with an addiction for coffee and traveling.

Hope I could give you a short glance into who I am. But if there are any open questions please don’t hesitate to ask.

P.S.: I would suggest going for a coffee to answer them!!! ;)
