Join us while we navigate adulthood, experiences as expats in Germany, relationships and our dreams about food sponsorships. Do you even exist if you don't have a podcast anyway?
Food. We all love it. We all need it. Welcome to a new episode in which we will discuss about food, our relationship with it and how it determines our lives and the way we socialize. As it usually happens with us, things will get intense. We will also reflect on how our bodies are always being judged and the pressure which comes from a society that automatically equates being skinny with health. Let us know what your experiences are!

16. Buongiorno B*tch: was 2022 the shortest year ever or what?
Another year is coming to an end, so what a better way to honor it by chatting about our favorites of 2022 and getting in our feelings (as usual)? Well, there might be better ways but we don’t really care about them. Sorry, we've decided that next year's theme is being more unapologetic so we're just practicing. Anyways, let us know if you're thinking of giving our suggestions a try and what your top picks of the year are. Cheers!

15.Buongiorno B*tch: are we jumping off bridges just because our friends did so too?
After a long pause, Greta and Marina decided to finally sit down to talk about what concerns us all the most: changes.
We long for them, we're afraid of them, we cannot escape them. Dealing with peer pressure, societal expectations and your own little zoo of struggles can be disheartening and plain exhausting, and no, we don't have any solutions for that. We just wanted to rant a little. Nonetheless, we hope you feel that you're not the only one having a hard time with them.

Hello, hello!

It’s not the most talked about topic out there, so we hope you appreciate our insights and we’d love to hear yours too.
