Starting the holiday

Today is the first day of my lecture free time. All exams and presentations are done and my first semester of my master studies here in Berlin is down. So what's the best way to start the holidays? A delicious breakfast. No rush, no hurry and no full agenda. Perfect.  

So what does a breakfast need to make me happy?
1.  A cappuccino with a lot of milk
2.  The perfect cappuccino needs two cups of sugar
3.  A croissant (if its with a nougat filling even better)
4.  a good novel 

Oh yes!
This is how it's supposed to be

let the day begin 

Light

Winter in Berlin is hardcore. 

It's like you live in the north-pole 

there is no light 

there is no sun.

There is only a thick milky-grey sky

and you have to put on the light in your house

every day. 

All the time.

It's funny that we only notice what we need

when it's not there.

Alltagsmeditation

Valparaíso, die verrückte Hafenstadt in Chile hat uns das Stricken beigebracht. Für uns ist es Meditation, und Zeit zum Abschalten. 

Masche um Masche, Zentimeter für Zentimeter haben wir in den letzten Monaten für die ganze Familie Schals gestrickt. 

Naturbelassene Schafswolle ist besonders einfach für Anfänger weil
 sie ist dünn und fest ist

Bunte Wolle für kleine Kinder! Kuschelweiche Winterschals.

Stricknadeln aus massivem Holz sind zwar schwer für die Arme, haben aber unglaublich viel Charme.
