winter sceneries.

we had a bit of snow in early december. it looked too beautiful and was gone too soon. we had no christmas snow this time. but i have proof that it was kind of wintery.

i bought a new laptop, the screen of my old one made strange things so it was decided i needed to prevent computer loss. a christmas present to myself. and it's absolutely sleek and so easy to use. it even had windows 8 included! not sure if i ever want to miss it, haha.

zeil sky. i made my way to frankfurt one day to meet up with lea. we had late lunch up at coa - an asian restaurant. the architecture is kind of crazy.

after lunch we made our way to frankfurt christmas market. it wasn't that amazing, but there were a few good things to be found. like beeswax candles.

or religious people.

in elk format.

also: vintage merry-go-rounds.

a picture of me and nici! we were waiting for a improvisational theatre show to begin.

winter lilies on wiesbaden christmas market.

marktkirche and market stuff.

i think it is one of my most favourite streets in wiesbaden. it's more narrow and old than the rest of the city.

ape in the windows.

some people had sleigh rides.

snowman built with a bucket.

green playground monster. this is really something in old-fashioned wiesbaden. a glimpse of future.

snowman found definitely a good place to stand.

beautiful view onto old wiesbaden.

my funny looking snowman.

j.'s teeny snow boy.

and a greeting from a glowing icebear.

may '20: seeking modernism.

super pink rhododendron buds emerging! i start off this post with some flower images to appreciate and praise the time of spring, especially the month of may, which is the most abundant spring month to me personally. all the blossoms, all the fresh greens amass during may, and my heart and mind are hardly ever able to not frolick & gush about it all! for this post i am returning to one walk i did with the sole purpose to find a special mid-century villa in königstein ( which would ultimately prove to be a failure - i did find it, but i couldn't approach it properly to have a good look at it and only ever saw a tiny bit of the garden/forest side ). the whole walk was not a letdown, though, as i did find some other mid-century & brutalism gems and thoroughly enjoyed walking through the old spa town in the taunus mountains. rhododendron shrubs yield all kinds of different blossoms in myriad colours, they are easy to breed, therefore a wide variety can be found all over the wor...

autumn impressions.

a selected assortment of autumn related things. ( or things that don't fit into a 'bigger picture' ) i will get around to posting my autumn vacation photos as well. my parents and me visited france a second time and i think it was almost as wonderful as the first time. but i'll get to that soon. moth in front of a vinyl shop window. i bet you know who's smile it is that strikes at you from the record. elvis! i went mushroom hunting again, this time with jasmin, the best mushroom finder i have :) but we didn't have a lot of time together this past autumn, i am very sad to admit this. she's one of our apprentices in the serving area in our market, but recently she's on exchange in a different outlet until january. but soon we'll have her back and our sporadic meetings will stop being sporadic. i think times like these make me realize that there's something worth living for. mostly my life is very grey and i'm so thankful to s...

of dragons & critters and yin & yang kittens.

my cat shadow is a very prolific cat and gives birth to baby sweethearts annually. we always let them grow up until they're old enough to be given away. growing up in a huge garden where they can roam around freely - isn't that the best way to grow up? it's always a joy to visit my parents and my cat in that time of the year. i have also included some pictures of a little rhine trip i made in the middle of may. and the occasional random ones that didn't fit somewhere. rhine wood dragon. sitting on the rhine beach enjoying the beautiful day. my stone collection of the day. ( i seriously have a lot of stones in my home. i love to collect them! ) the river rhine near eltville. random skull assortment ( shot this at the naxoshalle in frankfurt - i was there for a japanese movie festival ) rosey roses. they also smelled heavenly. raindrops on my window. chameleon tail. i adore spirals. baby kittens drinking momma m...
