The author of Filipinamom in Denmark

Hi My name is Ana Lindenhann a Filipina mom who now spending my not so fairy tale life in Denmark. Don’t get me wrong my life is almost perfect but Denmark is known for fairy tales of Hans Christian Andersen of the famous Little Mermaid and other stories. It is ruled by Europe’s oldest monarchy and the princesses are like me foreigners but they are called Her Royal Highness but me and the rest of foreigner will always be called ethnic minorities or later New Danes.

Filipinamom did not dreamed of marrying somebody from different country but fate brought her in here in Denmark and living a challenging life balancing motherhood and integrating to the host country but her Filipino traits and culture still intact.

She is passionate about women’s empowerment, environmental issues, organic products, Filipino values, architecture, danish design, Filipino Design,photography, travelling family & shoes. She is loyal and true friend but often misused but she believes in karma.

Here you can read about her tales about motherhood, student life in Denmark, relationships, uplifting Filipina image, environmental issues and take a glimpse of the Denmark where she lives now and the Philippines.

Why Filipinamom?

How dare she call herself  Filipinamom! Who is this Filipinamom?  All Filipina mothers are Filipinamoms and I’m just one of them. I may not be a perfect model representing Filipina but life or mother hood is a lifetime school of challenges. While my schoolmates from highschool to college are already dealing with problems about their teenagers, this filipinamom is still dealing with how to teach my son to cross the street, how not to run while we are inside the church, not to climb his father’s computer table while trying to discover a lot of exciting things like cd marker that he thinks is a color pencil and so on and forth. But I thank God for the blessing that even at thsi late I manage to have a wonderful life with my supportive husband and sweet son.

What do you see when you google Filipina . Yes Filipinamom on the first page and I’m glad that is one of the things I observe so I use the monicker Filipinamom and bought the corresponding domains but long way before that I read about Perla Paredes Daly’s www.newfilipina.com  when I just arrive in Denmark , I’m discover Pinoyblog.com and read Pinoycook or the blogs of  Connie Veneracion where her recipes helped me lot even though I’m sorrounded by my Chefs relatives she has a fantastic recipes and land later the the reshaping the Filipina Images campaign of Noemi Dado of Filipinaimages.com and later comes a lot of Filipina bloggers and it’s amazing.They inspire me.

I can not consider myself  near the success of these Filipinas  I mentioned or anyway be as brilliant those Filipina bloggers but the bottom line we made a mark now Filipinas has something to tell other than trying to find a foreign husband. I’m married to a different nationalities other than mine and I knew who found their soul mate through dating sites but I just want to tell the world hey Filipinas are not only beautiful,sweet and obedient but they brilliant mommies, sisters, colleague, chefs, helpers, aupairs, friend, girlfriends, housewives, doctors, nurses  not those scantily clad babes you see in those ads.

Blogging Wise

I started blogging  for Filipinamom in Denmark for about   2 years now from Wordpress.com to own site but until now I until now  there’s no specific niche like for example like other mommy bloggers who blogs about recipes, household tips, parental tips oh I wish but I could. But I just write what comes into my mind but right now I can see that I have to do something like to my uncategorized categories and the overall design of this blog. I started with my own logo who kind hearted designer put his talent in designing one for me. Who knows one day it will be more professionalized and make money.
