Oh, so full of love!

You know how they (OECD) say Danish people are the happiest in the world? Maybe because they’re (we’re?) so full of love.

I was in Copenhagen last weekend and love [kærlighed] was all around … cheese love, clean city love, real estate love, nørrebronx love.

More Copenhagen pics coming up.

Of course DJ Bobo always knew.

More sips of happiness, please.

Roadtrippin to Poznan.

I went on a road trip to Poznan, Poland last weekend. Maybe you didn’t know but I’m the official lead groupie of Sylwia van der Wonderland. Sort of.

She had a gig in her hometown so I and my two fellow groupies jumped in the car with her and did some multicultural exploring (multi-kulti since we were four nationalities).

Here are some of the pictures. See more on my Facebook page.
Conclusion? We want more road trips!

Thought it was time with a break from instagrammed pictures and add some real color to life.

Berlin on a watercolour canvas

I used to paint and sketch a lot while still in high school and though it’s been less and less in the last 10 years I was happy to hear from Mira O’Brien who told me about her watercolour workshop at the Berlin Drawing Room.

The Summer Watercolor Workshop the Berlin Landscape (June 28 – July 15) is about the landscape of Berlin as a subject for practising the subtle medium of watercolour; layering color and value, dry and wet brushstrokes, sketching with watercolor, and experimentation with new materials.

It will be on Sundays, at changing outdoor locations and in addition, the class will meet in the Berlin Drawing Room studio to focus on technique.

No experience required!

Nothing ventured, nothing gained.

Les Valseuses. One of my favorite new places in Berlin. Julien and Olivier from Themroc in Torstraße recently ventured into opening their own place.

Happy they did! Big fan of their French/Belgian creations and even better: it’s located 500 m from my place.

Join them on Facebook.

“Cause your friends don’t dance and if they don’t dance well they’re no friends of mine”

We can go when we want to
The night is young and so am I
And we can dress real neat from our hats to our feet
And surprise ‘em with the victory cry
Say, we can act if want to
If we don’t nobody will
And you can act real rude and totally removed
And I can act like an imbecile

An Uduak Moment

I regularly post photos from when out and about on my Facebook Page. Noticed?

Follow/like/watch here.

“When her guests were awash with champagne and with gin, She was recklessly sober, as sharp as a pin.”

Went to “Tonight we Tanqueray” at Made My Day a few weeks back and was happy to see it wasn’t the usual Torstraße “Free drinks? – we’re in!” get-together. Groovy live music, süper-tasty cocktails by skilled barkeepers and a nice crowd of gin-loving people.

So here’s a post devoted to the upcoming event at Atlas Pancakes in X-Berg on Thursday June 14th. Let’s see if they stay clean for round two. I have faith. Though unfortunately they couldn’t organise the barkeeper from the video. That would have been a sure winner!
