NYC Photo Diary Meatpacking District
Without doubt one of the most diverse and exciting districts of New York.

Of course we couldn’t miss the Times Square and Broadway!
Well, often heard, often said- New York’s skyscrapers are in fact huge and impressive and giant and breathtaking. In Berlin we maybe have Sony Center, but if you take this and add about 15 more floors you’ll only have a tiny skyscraper for New York relations. However not only the houses are huge- the cars (limousines are really no big deal in New York- there are two options, either the limo is your own and your driver takes you to work every day, or it is a tourist attraction taxi that costs more than a usual one) and trucks are unbelievable for Europeans.
One of the most interesting and capturing sides of New York is definitely Brooklyn. We’ve heard much about it, Miranda lives there, it is the new Manhattan- in fact everything I heard is true. The district is calm, friendly, artistic and somehow provincial. You can meet actual people who are living there- whereas at Park Lane and Fifth Avenue you can only watch how unrealistic life of the hyper rich can be. What is more I learned about one of the most romantic gestures ever- having your love locked forever with initials on a lock on brooklyn bridge- how sweet it is!
More pictures to come!

Home sweet home! Yesterday I got back home from a one week class trip to England. We stayed in a youth hostel in Bristol. Since living in England for a rather long time I never have been to Bristol and was really stunned by it’s art scene.I guess some of you maybe know the street artist Banksy or have seen some of his work without knowing who the artist is. He is from Birstol and of course there is a lot of his work around the city. We did a little tour through the streets and spotted the one or other Banksy art work. Here are just some pictures of the whole trip. (1.) Dyrham Park (2.) on a street in Bristol (3.) Bristol Harbour (4.) Christmas Street (5.) new Ash boots (6.) Bristol Museum and Art Gallery (7.) infront of our hostel (8.) by the water (9.) Banksy street art
The Naked and Famous Pantha du Prince Last saturday me and my friend went to the Berlin Festival. The music festival was located in Tempelhof, Berlin’s former airport. Huge stages were built up in the hangars and many food stands were offering festival delicacies like veggie burger or pasta. However the atmosphere was great- people just wanted to hear good music and have a good time. While sunset everyone sat on the ground, dipped in sun beams, relaxing. Our personal hightlights of the night (yes, there were several!) were Florrie (soon I’ll do a whole post on her, she has been so impressive), of course Naked and Famous, as well as Pantha du Prince and lastly Boys Noize- they rock!
I almost forget about these outfit pictures which we took in Italy! The water is so clear and blue, I could start daydreaming again! Also the setting is extremely beautiful- the garden is so neat and in its full bloom. Sometimes all I wish for is to get back to all these wonderful places on earth and escape daily routine some time. Dress – H&M Bag – Liebeskind Berlin Shoes – Tamaris
Very rarely we can call an evenening “a perfect night”. Last saturday of holidays was a perfect night like this. I was still at Lake Garda with family and friends, so the evening began with eating pizza together and enjoying stories about travelling through Italy. After that my mom and I went to the performance of “The Black Swan” (from the choreograph from oscar winning movie “Black Swan”!) by the American Ballet. The clue was, that the performance was open air in the so called “Vittoriale” (which is someting like a very small colosseum). The setting was so beautiful, because you had full view of the lake, the dancers made their play in the foreground and everything was enlightened by the moonlight. It was one of the most beautiful things I’ve ever seen. After that we had some cocktails in the Hotel and even a firework was taking place at midnight.
