give way for kitsch
Café des 2 Moulins, Montmartre, Paris – France
While visiting Paris for the third time, I finally went to discover some of the locations shown in one of my favourite movies, Le fabuleux destin d’Amélie Poulain. Had to realize that none of them carries a special atmosphere… rather they would just sell “Fabuleux Crème Brulée” or “Amélie’s Whatever” and decorate the interior with kitsch and trash. Well, if I want to continue dreaming of the city Amélie lives in, I have to give the movie another watch

Another one from Norway: walking on and around ice crevasses of this fellow.
small theatre
Zeughaus, Mannheim
This and more stage models were shown at the “Zeughaus”, some weeks ago – like this one of Stefan. Small dreamworlds, nicely handcrafted.
abandoned barn
Home Village
While the first flowers start to peek out for the warm rays of sun, I went for a short walk in my home village. This barn belongs to a house owned by one of my relatives, but she lives in a retirement home now. The property thus waits for someone to buy it – though it is already left uncared for in awhile.
wishing you…
