1. twitter!

i'm really new to this and don't have really someone who follows me yet, but still, i like the concept pretty much! it's like a little diary where you don't have to put a whole essay to describe your day. i love it! and it's easy to maintain! join twitter for getting in contact with a lot of different people or just to let people know that you're still alive! here's a review done by a wonderful lady blogger: nubby twiglet.

2. i recently discovered these great pouches by kaylah doolan ( who is one follower of my twitter account, yay :D ) and i recommend them to all of you! they're cute and good for cosmetics, pens or whatever you want to collect in them!

3. while roaming around on the net i discovered this very interesting article about surviving the mercury retrograde by gala darling. it is so true that things go wild these days and the best thing is, you have something to blame! there's a lot of great tips on how to survive this difficult time.

4. puppet photoshoot by sofia sanchez and mauro mongiello.

this photoshoot is quite fantastic because it's seems these could've been shot in the golden twenties! i love the candy-coloured big hair and the flower ones as well! also this photoshoot is very sophisticated and classy! and this one is an hommage to john rawlings fantastic photography!

5. it seems i find all the things that make me glee on gala darling's website! like this video! it's so heart-warming and cute! yeah, people dance all over the world!

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 ...
