About

Hi, I'm Bianca!

Food has always been a very important part of my life. As a kid, I used to sit in the kitchen watching my parents cook and bake. My mother always cooked us delicious meals for lunch when we came home from school and she was very well known for her awesome birthday cakes. These fond memories inspired me to get creative in the kitchen myself.

Personally, I love to get to know the people behind a blog better. So, lets get a bit personal here!

I am super lucky to call Switzerland my home. It is such a beautiful country with so much to discover. After being in a long distance relationship with my better half since 2018 I now call Michigan my second home.

I recently graduated with a Bachelor's degree in International Management and am now starting a new chapter in life. In the past years I have finally figured out who I am and what I want in life. My dream is to have a simpler life, out in nature and run my own homestead. Cooking and now planting are my passion and I love making family and friends smile when I give them some homemade food and other goodies. I have recently started hosting dinner parties and I am born to be a host!

Next to food and plants, animals are a very important part of my life. I am lucky to be the mom of three dogs. Shana is my family dog here in Switzerland, and Kingston and Ranger, are my babies in the USA with my partner.

If you can't find me in the kitchen, behind the camera or checking whether any of my plants have maybe grown in the past five minutes, I'll probably be singing out loud to my favorite songs or watching a good Netflix show.

My Inspiration

About me: Hi I'm Bianca

After struggling a lot with my mental health I decided to start taking care of myself again and get a good self-care routine. As I loved good food I instantly decided to make daily cooking part of that routine. On this journey I shared photos of my food with all my friends and family. To make this process easier I decided to start a food blog on Instagram at the beginning of 2020.

Not long before I decided to start my food blog, I met my better half who's an American. This was a huge cultural shock to me and the inspiration for the name "Oh Sweet Cultureshock".

On my food journey I tried many new flavors and incorporated them into my recipes. As a picky eater I challenged myself to keep trying new things but also food I didn’t like by just preparing them differently.

Fast forward to present day. I am still a food enthusiast and on my journey of cooking every day I discovered my passion for food photography and recipe development. With the launch of my website in 2021 I finally have a space for you to find all my creations. During 2023 I discovered urban homesteading and dinner party hosting.

I want to teach you how to create simple, comforting recipes made from scratch, teach you how to grow your own food even in a small space and give you all the tips and tricks to be a great host. I am excited for the future of this blog and hopefully I will be able to make a living with what I love the most one day: food!

My Mission

The goal of this blog is to provide you with delicious, seasonal recipes made from scratch. I want to help you gain confidence to cook from scratch and find your taste by preparing the recipes the way you like them.

Plus, as a new urban homesteader I want to encourage you to start growing your own food and making your own ingredients from scratch even with a small space. Whether it is growing a kitchen garden, pickling and fermenting your produce or making your own jams and sauces, there is so much joy in knowing exactly what goes into your food and the accomplishment of having made everything yourself. Let's go back to a simpler way of cooking and make it a relaxing and fun experience again for everyone!
