Espresso yourself!
Coffee and 35 degrees don’t go well together. Ice coffee and 35 degrees are a way better match!
I mentioned Bonanza Coffee Heroes and Pro Macchina as my favorite coffee places but Impala is an adequate alternative. They recently opened a third place at Senefelder Platz.
Trying the cream cheese brownie is a must!

Straight out of Studio 54
It’s getting bigger, isn’t it?
I made it to Bread and Butter for a few hours last Thursday. As with the last two times: Impressive what they are able to create! The fair just keeps growing.
Supernatural by luck
Photo taken on the train to Vienna Airport on Wednesday. Have to say, I love the colors. Don’t know how they turned out like that?
Saturday excursion
If you’re thinking about getting out of the city this weekend, here’s your destination: Art Biesenthal. Located about 25 km north of Berlin.

If you can’t make it tomorrow, go on

25.07, 14.00 – 20.00

A summer ode to MM
1.000 kisses to the DJ who plays this song tonight!
Off to the Weekday store opening or Designer Scouts at .HBC or Bright Bar or the WeSC BBQ or the Cheap Monday party … who decides, you decide?
I believe in quality over quantity!

Appearantly Diesel doesn’t agree on that point of view. Can you think of a more … stupid(!) campaign? And it seems to last forever. At least since the last Fashion Week in Berlin. C’mon!!
The beauty of the incomplete
A must see in Berlin. Neues Museum. Completely restored and rebuilt by British architect David Chipperfield and his team over a period of twelve years. Finished October 2009.
Everybody loves Thursday
Berlin Fashion Week coming up! Due to a currently less balanced work load I can’t attend so many events but then again, I don’t think I’ll cry myself to sleep over it.
I will however go to (or have to prioritize between) the Bread & Butter opening + fair, the key to fair, an organic brunch at siebenundsiebzig, the Ellesse by Wood Wood event, Designer Scouts Fashion Show, The Big Trip by Bright, Weekday shop opening and a barbecue at Burg & Schild.

Kiss, Morgenstern, Moron and Schwedusch. They can’t help it, it’s how they were born
Have you ever studied the nameplates at your building? Schwarzburger Pinke-Panke. That’s the name of one of my neighbours. I still wonder if it’s a joke.
So I started taking photos of nameplates at random buildings. Here are a few. I mean, Morgenstern (morning star) is kind of pretty, Kiss is funky but who would like their last name to be Moron?
- talk about a being an easy target in the school yard!
We just can’t get enough
Seriously, I won’t do it but I’m very close to complaining about how hot it is in Berlin these days. BUT luckily there are lots of Strandbäder where you can go cool down.
I have to go to Sommerbad Pankow. Yes! It’s all about the roller coaster! I still remember our 1995 family trip to Lignano Sabbiadoro including a day at the close by water park.
Check out all the Strandbäder here
