- Driving behind a bubblegum pink caravan.
- Bread with cream cheese and tomatoes. Different sorts of hummus from the Austrian supermarket.
- Hannah Britland.
- Talking to a Romanian cultural studies professor at the flea market who told me everything about symbolism and carpet patterns.
- Using my new heated eyelash curler. Amazing.
- Homemade Kaspressknödel.
- Andrea's videos on YouTube.
- Blackberries in the garden.
- Patrick, my quiz-soulmate, can solve a whole Stern Kreuzweise without help. Mad respect. Still, I could contribute some right solutions. And he reminded me of You Don't Know Jack .
- Nail polish of the month: P2 "Business Woman", a soft, greyish lavender / a dark rouge noir by Manhattan.
- Taking a walk in Gstaudach with Bert. Having a beer and apple pie.
- A little illustration gig. Yay, money! Much needed.
- Caramel beurre salé everything. Oh, and macarons.
- Wearing sleeveless clothes. Just because it is insanely hot outside. Very liberating. Who gives a shit about fat arms anyway. Bonus: sun tan!
- Guilty pleasure: books by Joanne Harris.
- I found my perfect feel-good breakfast combination: healthy cereals with almonds, plain yoghurt and fruit - preferably blueberries or figs.
- Little gifts from France for my kitchen: sea salt, walnut oil, pear and fig jam, cidre.
- Having the right touch with our AirBnB choice - we rented the perfect 3-room apartment in Antibes with great hosts.
- The musée Picasso in Antibes (Goats! Fauns! Francoise Gilot!). And the view from chateaux Grimaldi is absolutely stunning.
- Scuba diving in the Mediterranean Sea! I saw an orange jellyfish and a colorful fish.
- Driving my car on French coastal roads.
- Orange trees. A book about citrus fruits.
- Being complimented for my (bad) French - apparently at least my pronounciation is so good that most people are surprised I'm from Germany? I even had a conversation with a lovely old lady at the supermarket.
- Lindt chocolate: Lindor Extra Dark.
- Fettes Brot. Blast from the past. Jein is such a great song!
- I don't necessarily like Kera Till's drawings or even her apartment - but I like what she has to say about her life.
- A beautiful floral dress from Forever 21.
- I'm might get my own flat again in October. With two rooms. YES.
