Sophie Kinsella’s book may be falling into the category of chick lit. But hey, who cares – sometimes a girl needs a little bit dreaming away and relaxing her mind. Sitting on the top of the mountains, on a bench in the sunshine in front of an alpine hut and waiting for my friends to […]

Once again Franzi’s holiday plans gave me the opportunity to write a guest post. Again it will be in Arts and Books and this time I’d like to introduce an artist who’s creating amazing pictures with light and shadow. Rashad Alakbarov is a multifaceted artist, but the work that impresses me most are his shadow installations.

„Wow… wow! Really?!“ Those were my thoughts when I first saw the paintings (!!!) by the Tel Aviv-born and New York-based painter Yigal Ozeri. Followed by „unbelievable“ and „stunning“. Yes, those pictures of beautiful women – lying somewhere around in the nature – are paintings, not photos. Yigal Ozeri first photographs his motives, then he

Wow, those sculptures by Canadian Artist Aganetha Dyck and her little coworkers – honeybees – are stunning and nothing less than beautiful!

It sounds like a really cool PhD thesis that would make the perfect party conversation: „What a you doing?“ „I’m a runologist, currently writing my PhD thesis about translating old viking runes carved on wood“. Mmmh, I guess that’s more interesting than trying to explain people that you are studying transport pathways within yeast cells

That’s it for this week. I lay in bed for 7 whole days! It actually surprised me that I am capable to do this. Thank god, I am feeling better now and already dared to go outside two times. I still have to be careful to not overdo, but I really look forward to a
Here comes the sentence I always start a book post with: Finally a book post again! This time I would like to recommend you a book that was a freaking long time on my to-read list: The Diving Bell and the Butterfly: A Memoir of Life in Death by Jean-Dominique Bauby. Last summer I found

What happened with your X-Mas tree after X-Mas? In my family it will be immediately discarded at January, 1. In my own flat I only put down the decorations after January, 6 (the more traditional way). Where do all the abandoned trees go? They lay on the streets for a few days and then they
