🇩🇪 I suppose most of you are familiar with this: you want to travel. Explore things, have new experiences, feel history and indulge in new impressions. Hear, see, taste, smell and feel how things are in a different place. Leaving the daily routine behind. But many times you lack opportunity: time, money, or both of…

The month of love of reading 💙📚
🇩🇪 February is the month of love of reading in the U.S.. I couldn’t find out whether we’ve got something equal here in Germany, but I really hope so. Reading. I’ve been asked so many times „Aren’t you bored?“ or „Isn’t that exhausting?“. Naah. Not really. There are hundreds of reason to read – you…
The perfect place abroad
🇩🇪 Going abroad for a couple of months. That actually sounds kinda simple and if you really want to it isn’t that hard to make it come true. Everything is possible in one way or another if you are only ready to compromise with yourself. The hardest part is, in fact, the „What?“ and „Where?“….
A hairy matter for a good cause ✂
🇩🇪 Actually I am more of a rather short hair person, but I grew my hair during my year abroad – mainly because I was broke. When I came back I intended to cut off a rather big part but I stopped in the last moment and thought about it. I wouldn’t miss my long…
The SUB 📚
🇩🇪 Some women possess a whole closet stuffed with beautiful clothes and lament nevertheless that they’ve got nothing to wear. We book lovers have got the same problem, but ours got a name: SUB – the Stack of Unread Books. Well, friends, by now my SUB includes more books than some people have on their…
Fruity nut bread
🇩🇪 Never do we receive more visitors or visit more than during the holiday season and through the change of years. But what to serve your guests or to bring to the party? What can you conjure up when someone surprises you and shows up on your door step? Nothing. Because with this bread you’ve…
The Christmas reading list
🇩🇪 Every year around Christmas, or even throughout the whole winter, I find myself wanting to read a few classics. But what is, actually, a good book to read during this season? If you want to know which books match perfectly with a good cup of tea, christmas cookies and a fire in the fireplace…
Hiking in Las Médulas
Last month two friends of mine and I joined the university’s hiking society and let us be led through the Médulas. A very beautiful little mountain range close to the border to Galicia and one of the last stages of the Camino de Santiago (St. James’s way). Unfortunately, it was – again – raining cats…
Gijón – just as wet, but with a view
🇩🇪 As fate has it, it rained a lot in Gijón as well, but it cleared every now and then as well, so we could take at least a few amazing shots. Gijón is an industrial town at the Atlantic coast and if you have a look around you’ll see the weirdest clash of beautiful…
Oviedo – wet pearl of Asturias
🇩🇪 And I literally mean wet. It seems as if either I don’t have any luck travelling here, or the north of Spain simply is this wet; once more it was raining on our trip. But that wouldn’t hold us back anyway :D This time we did a weekend trip to Oviedo and Gijón (next…
