red hawthorn tree. autumn on graveyards.

good evening.
a rare signal coming from yours truly. 
it's december and it's probably not very appropriate to post pictures from october. snow fell today and i'm aware that this is even more contrasting concerning the golden and red leaves i'm about to show. 
the procrastinator in me is having fun. even though i'm having a bad conscience about it, she still wins everytime. the reason why i'm posting again is a new and faster computer. pictures get edited faster. which is kind of awesome. and maybe i can cheat her a little bit. trick her out. maybe my small adventures will be more time appropriate soon. maybe. maybe is a big word.

but here you have me back.
and the leaves love to be stared at. graves as well. graveyard walks in autum are a tradition of mine i really hold dear. i love to remind myself of death once in a while. well, actually it's a lot once in a whiles. but the best and coziest time to visit the death is autumn, there's no other way around that fact.

from early october, on my birthday. dear dad.

in the forests.

it's that time of the year again.

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, ...
