Stressful Times

Hey my loves

Am actually pretty stressed out at the moment. Had my first exams at Uni, which was extremely overwhelming, flabbergasting, fascinating and scary at the same time. After that I'll have plenty of time (well not really but more time than now) for telling you misterious, interesting and world-changing stories... There's actually something really exciting I'll soon be allowed to tell you. Oh and by the way, I'm going to Brighton for holiday! So looking forward to see all the pretty babes again! Hope you're all right and your dreams came a bit closer to realisation...

An ocean of Love and a thousand kisses

Winterwonderland

Spent a lovely day with my family outside! We went for a 3 hours hiking tour - from Vals to Zerfreila during which I took the photos above. After a snack we returned to Vals by sledge, which was absolutely hilarious. It took us around one hour. So you can imagine how long the way was. My sledge was an old timer and quite stubborn. I was randomly gliding from the one side of the slope to the other. In addition my lovely dog got freakily crazy by seeing us sledging and started bumping into us. She was just crazily barking around... I had to watch out for not driving into her, which was quite a challenge. Hope you all have a wonderful christmas time! 

Lots of love

Paternoster

Seriously guys, this is the most amazing invention ever! My first experience I had with the paternoster elevator was at the age of six. I was extremely flabbergasted! It was love at first sight. I pretty like the idea of entering the paternoster without opening a door - you just have to jump into it... Paternoster elevators were quite popular in the first half of the 20th century. They were taken out of service because of the high risk of accidents - falling over when trying to enter the elevator. But guys, wouldn't life be a bit more adventurous having them again? You know, just as an option besides a normal elevator in selected places, such as libraries, museums or places like that. I am freakily in love with paternoster...

Lady Gaga - Marry The Night (Official Video)

I'm not really into Lady Gaga as I prefer natural voices which aren't technically modified, but I do find this clip is rad! Love the surreal trashiness and the homage to the 80ies as I'm a big fan of that decade's music. And gosh, that Lady can dance, which I didn't know at all! It's nice to see here in a way she really looks like (as much as that's possible). She's actually pretty sweet.

Lots of love

Lindsay for Playboy

I love the classiness of the photos. It's like old Playboy photos used to be. Love the homage to Marilyn. Lindsay was photographed by Yu Tsai (as you know, he's one of my favorite photographers). So well done Lindsay and well done Yu. Hopefully, this will lead Lindsay out of her master of disaster lifestyle.

The Butterfly Circus [Short Film HD]

This is the most beautiful film I've ever seen. I always gotta cry in the last 5 mins. It's so amazing. Seriously! So breathtaking, heart touching - magnificent!

The Butterfly Circus is an american short film produced by Joshua and Rebekah Weigel in 2009. They shot the film with a crew of 150 in San Gabriel Mountain, Riverside, Palmdale and Santa Clarita in South California. It only took them twelve days to film it. The inspiring australian Nick Vujicic who was born without arms or legs received the Best Actor award for his starring performance as "Will" at the Method Fest Independent Film Festival in 2010. Check him out! He is so crazily inspiring. Although I'm not really into religious affairs (he's an international motivational and evangelistic speaker) he really is an inspiration (and has quite a good voice)

Digitalism in Zurich

That concert was just awesome! Such as good atmosphere - haven't been dancing for ages (well not really but u know...) and that was really the best concert for ever. All the pretty babes I saw again (two of my best friends I haven't seen for a year)... Yeah it was def a great evening. Oh and I got the new iPhone and I took the video with it - It's such a good quality (for a mobile phone!) I'm stunned.

Had to finish my term paper for uni which was kinda stressful. But finally I got there ... Hope you guys are fine and everything's going well.

Lots of love and an thousand hugs

Alison Scarpulla

The New York-based Alison Scarpulla really came into photography when she was 15. I love her style, which clearly stands out in contemporary photography. Her pictures have a touch of morbidity and psych.. Looking at them is like experiencing a psychedelic trip. What I love about her photography is, that it's not the normal stuff - she's going her own way and is very different from nowadays photography...to see more stunning photos check out her site here.

Ellen Rogers

Ellen Rogers in a London-based fashion photographer. Her work is signed by "timeless dream worlds where temptresses seduce and lure you into unknown, dark lands" (http://ellenrogers.co.uk/). Rogers works all-analogue, which means that she does not use any digital equipment or photo editing with the computer. She invented new techniques by experimenting with "traditional darkroom processes".

I really love her art. Every photo captures you with its own magic. They are pretty mystical and gloomy, which makes them even more interesting. It is as you could virtually grab the mood of the photos. In my opinion she's one of the most outstanding photographers in our time...

Remembering Brighton

Four months passed since I came back from Brighton. Took those photos during my stay there (unfortunately my camera was broken after a few weeks so couldn't capture every breathtaking moment, annoying seagull, or every cup of tea I drank) I always remember Brighton as a peaceful place where freedom is lived how it should be. I'm actually planning my next trip to the UK. Hopefully will get there after my exams in february. Need to stock up on good vibes, which are kinda rare here. Wanna see all the pretty babes again and wanna party hard. Would love to sit in preston park with a really good friend talking about the universe, dancing on the moonlight, or whatever pops up in our minds. How I miss this guy! Even if the UK isn't that far away it still needs time to go there - and as a student u don't really have much. 

    That sounds a bit materialist but I got to buy some new cloths so badly! Since I was in the UK I just can't buy anything here. It's sort of nonsense - way too expensive, not my kind of style, bad quality - you know just conform stuff for too much money. People here just don't want to walk to a different drummer - but I do! Being a free spirit is sometimes not that easy as it seems to be. 

    To all of you who haven't been to Brighton yet (and think the brits are donnish, firm and conservative) I warmly recommend a visit in Brighton for getting some new impressions. It's not San Francisco (as you folks now I love it more than another city) but it's pretty close to it in an english way.
