Merry Christmas to all of you!!! :-)
I was in Copenhagen last week and saw a lot of nice decorations. I love the sugary Bottega Veneta decorations. Did you all manage to find the right christmas presents?
Have a wonderful day and enjoy the time with your family and friends!

HejHej!
I'm back in Scandinavia for Christmas and went to Copenhagen :) Enjoy the pictures, there will be more to come!
Good morning to you!
During the past few weeks I've been reading a lot. After I finished all three Fifty Shades books, I moved on to 666 Park Avenue by Gabriella Pierce which turned out to have two more follow up books. Namely The Dark Glamour and The Lost Soul which is set to be released on January 17th. At first I wasn't so sure about them. I started 666 Park Avenue and thought it was quite entertaining but a little childish and unoriginal. But then it got really exciting and I gradually also warmed up to the characters. After having read Fifty Shades, it's quite easy to get into the Gabriella Pierce novels, as the initial situation strongly resembles the one in Fifty Shades.
The books are about young Jane Boyle, who grew up with her shrewd grandmother in France and then moves to New York with her fiancé of one month. His family turns out to be the most influential one in teh whole city and his mother is a handfull. She tries to make all the decisions regarding her son's upcoming wedding and intimidates all the people around her to a point where they'd do anything to please her. To cut a long story short, Jane realises that she's a witch and gradually finds out that her new family is too. That could have been a good thing if they didn't have their evil plans with her...
I can only recommend the books to anyone who likes light but gripping entertainment ;-)
Good morning guys!
This has pretty much been a Hamburg blog so far and I'm going to try to post a greater variety of topics soon. Right now I'm just out in the city such a lot and see lots of nice things I want to show you. The above pictures show part of Hamburg's famous alterantive area called "Sternschanze". There are lots of quirky little cafés, everything seems a little run down (in a cool way ;-) ) and the people aren't Hamburg's classic rich lot. I love it!
My boyfriend baked gingerbread yesterday! And it tasted delicious ;-)
Yesterday we had a lovely breakfast at Starbucks and went for a nice walk. Although Hamburg is a quite big city there are lots of free living animals here. I saw a little bunny once again and was flabberghasted it didn't try to run away when I approached it slowly. I didn't go too near of course as I didn't want it to get frightened after all, but I nevertheless thought that level of secureness was surpising for a normally rather scared animal. It is so nice to have animals around and I really miss our own from when I was a kid! In a documentary I watched recently I heard that there must be over 5000 wild boars in Berlin and here around the Elbe we even have rare sea eagles!
When we passed a small boutique a little doggy looked up at us from the inside. It seems like almost everyone here has one! I would love to get one again too, but what with work and all that could be difficult. Well sometime I guess... :-)
A wonderful monday morning to you!
I hope you enjoy Part 2 of my London memories!
Today we went to the gemstone exhibition. My boyfriend and I are botk interested in that sort of stuff and so we thought we'd have a look. Unfortunately it was rather market-like with lots of stands and far too few real informative exhibition aspects. Well, at least we know now ;-) Are any of you interested?
