a lot to catch up.

i'm on vacations at the moment waiting for my parents to arrive. we plan to stay here in wiesbaden for a while and then head up to the north by the baltic sea for two weeks. i'm so excited, mainly because i swore to myself to write again. i miss wiriting somehow, and am eager to see if i still can come up with something decent. life has been pretty much a bitch lately, and i need some space for myself right now. the internet will be off for two weeks starting in a week and i guess it will do me quite good. concentrating on my existence and experiences alone. you just need this sometimes in this fast driven life we lead.

until i bid you goodbye here are some pictures from last month.

hello. my hair has gotten pretty long.

some pictures of a zoo visit at the beginning of june. please bear with me not writing so many captions. most of the time i say the same thing anyways, so it's not a big loss.









this hyena impressed me a lot. never knew they were so big and kind of bear-like. i know they're predators and quite dangerous, but the feeling got to me that these creatures are kind of gentle, too. it's something in they're eyes. they've encountered a lot of fights and their scars are quite intriguing.






kitties. i am quite sad about these pictures. i have promised l. a little kitty and we were so excited and everything and when the day came when we wanted to get it news arrived that the one she had chosen ran away, or got stolen... i don't want to think about the little one being dead at all, especially since my parents didn't find him. this kitty is a girl though, and the girls have already found a new home.

more girly kitties.

the boys. this photo especially hurts. the kitty that got missing is on the left.

this little guy has been sent to a home as well.

the girls were quite beauties, but also rather rebellious.

delicate blossoms.

shadow, the mother, breastfeeding her little ones.

such a sweet sight.



we also visited a chinese garden near where my parents live. it opened just a few years ago and was very new to me. it was really worthwhile and i wish i had something like this in my area as well. i'd go out and take my books with me and writing material and i'd be in my own oasis.


dragons.



















dad.

i was so magical, almost.



replicas of the terracotta army.


we also had coffee and cake. quite delicious.

this berry cake was heavenly... well almost any cake is, actually. i'm a cake person.

coconut cappuccino.


and a last picture of the first real thunderstorm of the year.

july '20: lake petersdorf discoveries and a plea against genocide.

the green wild meadows of malchow's sandfeld. in the west of malchow there is a big chunk of forest that spans towards plauer see, a widely 'uncultivated' area these days, but it hasn't always been this way. in my last post i mentioned the nazi munition factory that had been built in these woods, away from prying eyes of their enemies and where they also built an external subcamp for the concentration camp ravensbrück. exactly these woods we explored on a pretty sunny day, betraying the darkness that happened around these parts. isn't it weird that there are places in this world that were built or used by dark forces and horrible regimes and you vist them 80 years later and they are the most peaceful places you can imagine? sometimes my brain can't cope with the contrast of knowing what was in the past and what the present looks and feels like. it definitely leaves me with a strange impression often, kind of like a little sting in my heart and brain that is not ...

july '20: a boat ride across the lakes.

starting point in malchow harbour. when you're in the mecklenburg lakelands you need to do some of the many boat rides they offer up all around the various lakes! that's really sort of the best way to get a little overview over the many lake destinations and being on the water and feeling the wind on your face ( or the rain 😂 ) and seeing the life in the water and the landscapes around you, it's just special, i think! they often also tell you historic bits and pieces of the lakes, informing you on possible sights you should seek out, too! when you book a tour, you can choose between big day trips crossing several lakes, depending from where you start, or you can choose short rides that last a couple of hours and perhaps even have a theme like a sunset tour or a romance tour ( possibly with romantic dinner for two options 😉 ). from malchow you can choose between two tour providers: reederei pickran & the blau-weiße-flotte . there are tours that include up to 7 lakes, ...
