About

Welcome to Flavours by Jan!

Hello there! I'm Jan, the passionate creator behind FlavoursbyJan. At 26, I call the vibrant city of Cologne home, and I'm delighted to share my culinary journey with you.

Background and Weekly Culinary Adventures:
On Sundays, I embark on a unique culinary adventure, challenging myself to cook a new dish, ensuring that at least one component is entirely unfamiliar. Each week, I discover new flavors, techniques, and cultural influences, transforming my kitchen into a haven of creativity.

Cooking as a Source of Relaxation:
Cooking is my sanctuary—it's where I find solace, unwind, and immerse myself in the joy of creating. It's not just about preparing meals; it's a therapeutic experience that allows me to unwind and gather new impressions from various cultures.

Social Media and Culinary Exploration:
While I've been a passive observer on social media, indulging in delightful food videos, my journey has sparked a desire to share my own experiences. I'm excited about building a community around my blog as I gain more knowledge.

Future Plans:
As the blog evolves and a community blossoms, my vision extends beyond the digital realm. I dream of initiating a mutual culinary experience—an "Eat and Share" round. Participants, one or two at a time, will be invited to my home to share a carefully crafted menu, creating a focal point for delightful evenings filled with food and friendship.
