Life Update – I minus a tiny piece

Posted onSeptember 23, 2017November 16, 20211 Comment

You might be wondering why I haven’t blogged in almost two weeks. Again. Obviously, something happened that prevented me from writing – and still kind of does. That something was last week on Friday. It was just before lunchtime, I Read More …

Dear 2016, I was really looking forward to meet you. It was the last day of 2015 and it snowed so much in Istanbul, where I was to visit some of my best friends, that we had to give up Read More …

Living in the US: Let’s talk about garbage

Posted onNovember 4, 2016December 9, 20212 Comments

Recently, two pieces made me think of the important topic of garbage, or rather how to deal with it: Corinna’s post on waste disposal in Italy and this short video, which compares Germany and the US in that aspect. Having Read More …

My perfect accessory to fall asleep 🌠 ~gifted~ My perfect accessory to fall asleep 🌠 ~gifted~

I wear my 3-in-1 Bluetooth sleep headband from @digitnow.official almost every night and also during naps 😴. The fabric is so soft  and comfortable, even with (or rather thanks to) the built-in ultra-thin stereo speakers. The rechargeable battery provides over 14 hours of playtime. Oh, and, of course, the sound is also excellent! 🎧

What do you think I listen to the most to fall asleep?
1️⃣ Die drei ??? (German radio play series about 3 young detectives) 🕵‍♂️
2️⃣ The soundtrack of the musical "Sunset Blvd." 🎭
3️⃣ Meditation through the meditating app on my phone 💆‍♀️

A day off at the beach 🏖 to recharge I wonder A day off at the beach 🏖 to recharge

I wonder if Ophelia and I can make a trip to the beach every week. It takes almost 1.5 hours by subway to get there, but it's so worth it. 🌞

5 years married today 👰‍♀️🤵‍♂️ - 5 years married today 👰‍♀️🤵‍♂️ - and I would marry you again and again 💘 @richgellis

As it's our wooden anniversary, I got him something very much like me (just made of wood): German, consistent, pretty, reliable, and slightly annoying. 😆 Any guesses?
