Inspiration – Ines Amd.


  Ines Amd, born 1985, Ibiza/Paris. Beautiful.

Christmas Mail from Claudia.


This week is awesome. It seems that every day there is a new surprise waiting for me in the mailbox:
Thank you so much, Claudia! Especially for the little bag, I needed one to carry my external hard disk and it fits
perfectly! And this illustration is amazing! I will frame it and look for a nice place to put it!

To all of you I wish a wonderful and lovely Christmas with your family and beloved ones, kisses!

 Met a lovely lady with her dog Zac at the train. Hope they are fine.

Looking through really old vintage photos with my aunt to get back to our very roots.

Got a huge package of the most wonderful smelling teas from lovely Viktoria!

Read a really beautiful novel written by Haruki Murakami.

Last year this time was a lot of snow. It is so warm now, my Magnolia starts to sprout again.

You know Jessica's blog already? I really love to sneak through her pictures when I am stressed.

Still working on this, but there is some time left to finish, no need to hurry for me!

as the rest! Check out her shop and give yourself a little Christmasgift!

Thank you so much Sylvie, I love it!!!

Thanks for all your lovely comments on my last post! ♥

 Listened to this. Wonderful.

 Spend a nice day with a lot of friends & family.

 Lovely blog.

 Finally finished some more snailmail packages.

 Developing the vintage film totally failed, it was too old.

 This morning was so perfect. Cold, crispy grass & sunshine in my face.

Watched my succulent grow. Some photos will follow.

Lots of rain. Everything is grey & wet.

Lots of sheep and turkeys too! They're so funny. Love to have my own.

Preparing some packages & snailmail.

Finally found my watercolours! Think I will use them a lot next days.

Some years ago I started a snailhouse collection.

Put my amaryllis bulb in soil. It showed up a new leaf already though it was put in dark and paper!

Hope I will find time to develop this old roll of film I bought with my Diana.

Got new apple trees to plant at my parents house.

First Christmas market for this season. But it still is not that cold to enjoy them really.

Baked a lot of christmas cookies with ♥.

Enjoyed this little blog. So lovely!

Had some fine turkish bakery! Full of syrup, but delicious!

That's why I do it.


After asking you this question and receiving some lovely answers yet, I thought I should also participate, just to
give something back and make the (belated) first step.

Why do I blog?

My first intention to start a blog was to document my life. Not just the bad things happening, I want to keep the
focus on the positivity of life. I wanted to remember the little mundane things that make me smile. I choose a blog
instead of a booklet because it is an easy way to write short stories and visualize them by digital photography.
It is changing from the beginning to now, and this changing is still going on. That's something I long for too.

Blogging helps me to reflect and to realing. I don't mind being honest and open in the internet. I love and need the
response of others, people out of my direct environment who see things from a different level. Via this little space
here in the internet I call mine, I met a lot of lovely, interesting and wonderful inspiring people, so my blog is also
a place for me to get in touch with others who share kind of similar interests.

If you like to participate, please feel free to do so! I am looking forward to your answers!


Today I decided to have a day off. No studies. Thrifting & some shopping instead.
I bought some kind of christmas edition cookies for my bunny and the guinea pigs. Should be christmas trees,
I guess. And taste of strawberries, ananas and apple. Hope they like it.

Myself I found a 100% shetland wool sweater for only 5 Euros at the thrift store! Unfortunately I found a little hole
inside at home, but I can easily fix it. And I am looking forward to wear this huge and cozy blue cardigan, I also
fell in love with!

So it was a quite nice day, going to do a little bike ride now and wish you all a love wednesday too!

Met a lovely friend of mine. She's living in Hamburg right now, so we don't see each other so often anymore.

Made myself two new necklaces.

Lot of reading.

Went for brunch with another friend from Hamburg, we haven't seen for years!

Baked some apple & peanutbutter muffins.

Got addicted to apple & peanutbutter. Such a great combination!

Can't wait for this calendar!

H E L P.



I really need your help for a part of my Master thesis:
My theme is about the whole Magazineculture, including fanzines, self-publishing & blogging.
One part is the new way of writing a diary or reflecting about oneself.
So I would like to ask you some questions:

Why do you blog?
If it is a kind of diary for you, why do you choose this media instead of the common, even though it's public too?

If it's possible I would also ask for a picture that represents you or the answer.
Maybe a routine thing while blogging like a cup of your favourite tea, the place you always do it, something that
represents you and the blog. Or just a picture of you. You can send the answers (& the photo) here.

I am aware of the fact that this is a delicate thing and a lot can't be that open to foreigners. I really appreciate that.
For those who might join, be sure I will handle your answers and pictures with total care! Hoping for some answers,
I wish you all a lovely week!

Autumn is mushroom time. I ate a lot this week.

Decided to reject television.

So I found some time to be creative again.

And to bake a cake. Unfortunately it was eaten immediately, so there are no pics.

New lovely books about grafic design & zineculture. Looking forward to sneek through..

Visited a vernissage. And they snapshot me. But not too bad to be on slanted.de!

The weekend was really stressful. So it should not. We need to get a plan to calm down.

Foggy, wet & grey outside. I cleaned my flat this morning, moved some furniture and had a real breakfast
with yoghurt, mango & fruit juice. I am looking forward to the Weekend, especially Sunday.
I sneeked through some recipes and hope I'll find the time to cook or bake something nice with my boy.
I love to cook with him.

Met a friend and shared a huge mexican starter plate! Yum!

Went to the fleamarket and found the most beautiful mittens! Can't wait till it's getting cold enough to wear them!

Started to collect things for snail mail.

Golden leaves falling. So beautiful.

Visiting family.

A lot of walks. When there is a dog waiting to for you, it is much easier to get it started.

Still found some hidden last berries in the garden. But taste was less good than in summer.



I wish you a wonderful week!

Thank you!



This is the first anniversary of my little space right here.
And after yesterday's post I considered that I did a lot this year, even though it doesn't feel so:

Met a lot of new and lovely people through the blogosphere.
Thanks for visiting, reading & supporting! All of your lovely comments mean a lot to me!
Found my way back to enjoy life somehow.
I finished my Bachelor degree.
Applied succesfully to M.A. program.
Gave up our old space to find something new, exciting & beautiful hopefully soon.
Made a big journey.
Found some real vintage treasures, I don't wanna miss again.

I hope everyone of you can spend a nice&wonderful weekend!


So, if you're interested, I would like to send a little snailmail to you, just let me know your address via email!

Is it November yet? What was I doing this year? There are still so much unfinished or not even started projects...

Because today is World Vegan Day & because it was also a holiday here, I found the time to finally test making
nut milk! I made it with almonds just adding some water after watering them over night. It tastes like nothing,
do you have any suggestions or advices to get more taste out of the nuts? I took 150 g of nuts for one liter of
water.
