Did I plan an entire trip through eastern Germany Did I plan an entire trip through eastern Germany after seeing one single Pinterest picture? Yes, yes I did.

Behold the view that made me go to Bremen. From the corner of Wüstestätte and Marterburg you get a gorgeous look at the small, winding streets that lead into the colorful Schnoor neighborhood. Once home to many a medieval fisherman, today it is a touristy place with many pubs, restaurants, souvenir shops and small business selling all kinds of haberdasheries. Efteling vibes, for sure. 

📍 Schnoor Viertel, Bremen, Germany 🇩🇪

This summer I went solotripping through Germany with their €9 month-long public transport ticket. I've already been told that they will NOT repeat that offer this year 🥲 But I had my fun! First stop: Cologne!

If you saw my stories today then you already know that I lost pretty much all of my photos and videos from that trip. Here's what I could salvage from my DSLR and Lightroom library. More details and pictures are in the "Germany 3" highlight on my profile! 😊

And since I no longer post on my blog, I'm going to post a list of my favorite things here. You can save this post if you want to find it again later! 😌

COLOGNE FAVORITES:
1. Watch the sunset from the Rheinpromenade 
2. Instagram pictures at Fishmarkt
2. Count the Picasso's in Museum Ludwig
3. Lunch/Brunch & shopping in Belgisches Viertel
4. Dinner in Südstadt and @ais.baby for dessert
5. Picknick in the Botanical Garden
6. Coffee at @ernstkaffeeroester & @thecoffeegangkoeln 
8. Pause in the Fort X rose garden
7. Walk around Media-Park and Innerer Grüngürtel for cig city vibes
8. Admire the crane buildings along Im Zollhafen

The Dress That Makes Me Feel Like A Greek Goddess

dress: Scapa | shoes: Aldo | bag: Tommy Hilfiger (c/o – SKM)

Tall, skinny, long-legged, local record holder in quick-walking. You can call me a lot of things, but one thing that I’ve never been is elegant. From my childhood on I’ve been told that I have the agility of a plank. A tall, thick, hardwood plank. The kind of plank that doesn’t bend unless you saw it in half. Yep, that’s me!

I’ve always admired the souplesse of a ballerina, the leniency of a yogi, the flexibility of a gymnast. Oh, the lean people! They move in mysterious ways. When they walk its almost as if they dance forward, as if there are invisible clouds under their feet that they bounce off of. Their joints twist gracefully in ways that mine never have and probably never will, no matter how many times I try to learn how to tango or do the Cow Face Pose. I recently joined my first yoga class and had to laugh at myself in the mirror. Instead of relaxing I was worrying how I was going to twist my body back into a normal position after somehow managing to bend into what the teacher called the King Pigeon Pose. Who even comes up with those yoga poses?

I’m a stiff and clumsy person but luckily for stiff and clumsy persons there are a few easy ways to trick people into thinking that we are graceful. My favorite trick? Dressing gracefully! We all know that looks can be deceiving and this off-white pleated dress from Scapa Sports is my new favorite form of deceit. It’s light, airy and swirls around me with the gentlest breath of wind. The Greek-style neckline and beautiful pleating make me feel like a Greek goddess whenever I wear it. When I first tried the dress on in the shop the shop assistant said exactly what I wanted to hear: that I looked elegant, soft and even a little fragile. I don’t think I’ve ever decided on an expensive piece of clothing so fast!

    You look lovely. Good luck with Yoga. I enjoy it, but it is hard to let go of how you look or just “go with the flow.”

    That is a stunning dress, I love the way it swishes! I can see why you bought it, even without the lovely comment from the sales assistant it’s a beautiful piece. Perfect for summer.

    I’m not elegant either – I do yoga from the comfort of my own home so there’s no-one to laugh at my attempts, haha!

    Hope you are having a lovely start to the week 🙂

    I absolutely love this outfit! It’s so lovely, and the purple flowers (lavender?) provide a perfect backdrop.
