Alsace

The one thing i was mostly looking forward to during my holidays was the trip to Alsace, which is a very eastern region of France. We went to Strasbourg for just one day but it was amazing and I don't really know where my love for France ,the french language, culture and music is coming from but being in the country i love so much ( and I've only seen it once before when driving through France to get to Spain ) meant alot to me. People were incredibly friendly, the sights beautiful and the food amazing ;) And yes, we've had a whooole lot of wine to carry home. I was in the back of the bus basically surrounded by 20 packages of wine :)

When they said yes.

I can now say that I've got a sister-in-law.
Weeks of stress for all of us are now over but all the stress was worth it. The marriage of my brother and his girlfriend (who looked beautiful!)was amazing. The location was beautiful too, it took place on a castle set on a lake, so there was also time for a rowboat trip. We've had it all: a beautiful ceremony, nice music (i learned how to dance to Rock n Roll!), firework, games and lots of good laughs. Truly a night to remember. I wish both of them best of luck for their future! And now...pics pics pics! (as lovely as my purple dress looks, it is truly the most uncomfortable thing i have ever worn...!!)

Between work, wedding and vacations

There is a reason why i could barely post anything recently. My dear brother is getting married! It will be the first wedding i ever attented and i am super excited and happy for him! However, the marriage means a l o t of stress for the family and me. It all started yesterday with the "eve of wedding party" (wedding itself is tomorrow). In Germany it is a tradition to throw and break old porcellaine dishes in front of the house. It is said this banishes evil spirits and brings luck to the couple. The more porcellaine, the better.
Now after tidying everything up, i will take my time for the last wedding preparations and to pack my bag for my vacations (starting saturday). I will be off to Palatinate (very west Germany) / Alsace (very east France ;)) for a couple of days. We will stay at a vineyard for the yearly wine festival. Let's just hope i won't be spending ALL the time there being all tipsy ;)

The hairdryer method of saving your phone

Yesterday night i ended up in some really big trouble. Two words: massive thunderstorm. And me in the middle of it. Within just 5 seconds all my clothes and even my leather bag were all soaked. The inside of my shoes turned into little lakes. And worst of all: i needed to run through the city to get to my car. Jumping into the sea would have had just the same result. First thing I checked when coming home was my mobile phone: it was broken, all keys seemed to mix up. Before crying and getting hysteric my brain came up with a really good (but awkward) idea: why not drying it with the hairdryer?

1. Turn phone off if not turned off yet.
2. Take phone apart, move out the battery and cards.
3. Pre-dry your phone with a towel. Dab it, don't rub it.
4. Take your hair dryer and well..dry it. Make sure you keep a certain distance so it doesn't get too hot.

My phone worked perfectly again! And believe me, even my phone was soaked in water. But let's hope this will never happen to yours.

Oops, she did it again...!

Liberty is now accompanying me with every step i am taking...the word is written in yiddish letters. Foot is now half the size, can't really walk properly and yeh, now that i cannot go swimming for two weeks summer says hello (and it did not before). But this is so worth it.

About Change

The Lakes Of Canada by the innocence mission

In these wonderful times, surrounded by wonderful people, wonderful music and a wonderful country i find myself slightly lost. Don't get me wrong, I am happy. I am just not happy with what i am doing. I feel the urgent need to change the directions (Libertine calling eh..) i need to do what my heart and mind wants to do, and it is certainly not about sitting in an office wasting precious life time while dreaming of what i really want to do. Let's give the cards a shuffle rather than wasting too much time... I have no idea how and where to start but I hope that by January i can say that i am doing something i feel fine with.
