The music of the Nashville-based band Forlorn Strangers got me instantly. It’s acoustic country-indie kind of sound fits perfectly to those (slightly rainy) summer days on the sea. Their first album just came out. Today’s song Bottom of the Barrel is the first single from it. Have fun listening! Like always: All credits appear after […]

The stormy coastline in Zingst.. All pics by Franzi. Our summer vacations 2016 just started. Friday we drove to the Baltic Sea. Here we are staying in Barth and plan to have lots of sun (or maybe stormy) baths at the beach in Zingst. Yesterday we were at the isle of Rügen with its rough

Pic by Franzi. Since Elizabeth Dunkel’s 1980s novel Every Women Loves a Russian Poet is one of my favorite books, I had to read her second novel Under the Mosquito Net as well. Again, the story is about a single woman: Maia Rose is a successful beauty editor living in New York. She seems to

Let’s finish this week with an animated short featuring … bananas! This video was created by Xander Marritt and Elias Freiberger, and produced by Future Deluxe. It makes no sense at all but is worth watching nonetheless! I wish you an absurd fun weekend :)! Via Colossal. Like always: All credits appear after clicking the

Ingredients: 1 zucchini, 1 diced onion, 250 g cream cheese, salt, pepper, olive oil. Preparation: Wash and half

My belt collection. Pics by Franzi. I own eleven belts – I could literally combine every jeans with a different belt. Since I nearly never wear trousers I also nearly never wear belts. BUT if a wear trousers I HAVE to wear it with a belt, otherwise the trousers wouldn’t stay where they belong for
