Today we’ve been joined by Sofie, the beautiful face behind @sofiesfood. She’s given us a glimpse into her life, her travel plans and how instagram has introduced her to life long friends. Without further ado, let’s get started!

We love your instagram @sofiesfood, but apart from blogging, what do you do?
I’m studying Psychology and have just started my second semester at Uni. Apart from reading other people’s brains (just kidding, Psychology is mainly Maths, Biology and Physics) I enjoy the student life with my friends and am busy working, exercising, traveling and loving life right now 🙂

What’s been the most rewarding thing about starting a blog?
-I’m not gonna lie, having the opportunity to go to events and work with amazing brands is very very exciting but the best things are 1. meeting amazing, like-minded and inspiring people and 2. actually inspiring and even helping people! A girl one’s wrote me that my recipes and pictures helped her with her love-hate relationship with food and to overcome her eating disorder. Best. Moment. Ever.

Did you ever think that your blog could be such a success?
I put all my heart and soul into my Instagram + Blog and connecting with the Community but I still can’t really believe that so many people are actually interested in it! When I started I never ever thought I’d get this amazing feedback.

Have you met any real friends through instagram?
Oh yes, I have! I met a lot of very cool bloggers and a few amazing friends like my dear Julia from @julesvogel

We know that you visited London earlier this year, did you like it?
That word doesn’t even begin to describe it! I am in love with London and almost everything about it. I like to think that being fascinated by England runs in my blood as my mum’s an English teacher 😉 Plus, London is like heaven for any healthy foodie out there!

Where’s your favourite place in the world?
Probably Isla Zapatilla, Bocas del Toro, Panama!

When you travel, who do you go with?
I usually ask my friends but although I’m 20 I still love to travel with my mum as well. I went to London with Julia and I can only recommend traveling with blogger friends!

Where do you hope to visit next?
Oh well, where do I start? 😀 LA, Portugal and Dublin are on top of my list right now.

You live in Germany right now, what’s your favourite thing about your country?
From Hamburg to Bavaria, Germany is so diverse and from big vibrant and cool cities like Berlin to quiet beautiful villages, from the sea to the Alps there’s so much to see and experience.

If we were to visit, where do you recommend we go?
Visit Hamburg to cycle around the outer Alster, experience Berlin’s unique mix of old and new and come to southern Germany for good weather, the best beer, castles and amazing people!

You love to laugh, eat and go to nice places. That sounds like us! Where is your dream destination, what would you eat, and who would you take along for the ride?
I’d love to go the South – East Asia, eat lots of exotic fruit and take my best friend from uni or my travel buddy and favourite Hamburg city girl Antonia with me!
