Vacations are necessary, even if the destination is only 300 kilometers away. It's how people keep sane when they feel trapped at work or can't look at themselves because they hit the gym only once the whole week. I'm sorry to admit I am that person but acceptance is the first step, right? Oli and I took a trip out to Hamburg this weekend. Wandering around,...
Hello guys! Sorry I've been so inactive on the blog. I am well aware I missed the Share it Saturday last Saturday. I've been feeling rubbish lately because I have painful dry skin on my face right now. It's not a lot but it's around my mouth and it burns when I try to treat it with creams and oils. I guess I'll have to make a trip to the doctor but I'm lacking...
Hello party people, how are you today? I'm catching up on America's Next Top Model Cycle 20. I don't watch every season but once in a while I tune into one and keep up with it.

From special artisan goods to tofu burgers to old Polaroid cameras, this place has everything and a bag of chips. If you're not looking to buy anything, that works too--just sit on a stone step and listen to...
Happy Belated New Years Everyone! I know it's been a while since I posted. I've been going through a lot of stressful things, mainly with my living situation and employment. It's been so bad, and I feel awful that my dear friends from NY who came to stay with me in Berlin had to witness all the crazy. But what's done is done and it's time to move on....
Berlin is an interesting place. The rent's cheap, the food's cheap (well, unless you're looking for some natural Peanut Butter or Baby Spinach . . . and don't get me started on pureed pumpkin), and apart from finding a job being incredibly hard for a good ole American lass like me, it's quite the knock-out place to be. Take this picture (above) for example....
