Birthdays usually make me nostalgic and a bit thoughtful. This year's birthday came along as a bliss. Danke, Freunde.

After seeing my midwife yesterday I took a long walk through the Jewish Cemetary in Prenzlauer Berg in the rain, breathing in cold, wet air and jumping over puddles. It was so lovely and peaceful, I forgot everything around me, collecting boy's names from the tombstones (yes, I know I am weird) and searching for snales roused by the weather. When I walked back I got tangled in thoughts and oversaw a barrier on Schönhauser Allee. Before I knew it I lay flat on the street, having hit my thigh, elbow, hand and umbrella. I'm hurt and bruised all over, and stayed a bit winy all day (no worries, mini-me's just fine).

Got them back and am finally in my apartment again. Feels like heaven, truly.

I did a fair bit of zick-zacking Germany in the past two weeks, photographing, exploring and also relaxing a bit as mini-me is taking away a good portion of my energy these days, kicking and boxing hard and preventing me from sleeping most of the time.

Last night I returned to Berlin after a six hour train ride and realized in front of my door that I had forgotten my keys at the other end of Germany. My roommate and boyfriend are gone, so I'll have to be a clochard for a few days in Berlin until my keys arrive (feel free to offer me a bed for a night if you can)... I'm pissed but grateful I have good friends and family giving me a temporary home in the big, evil city while having to stick to deadlines and getting all my things done here. Happy Monday.

We're damn far from actually living here, but we shook hands with the owner lately and will move into this lovely spot full of sun sometime this summer. Can't wait. Why not be lucky sometime?

I took a little timeout from blogging - no idea how it happened. In the meantime, I've returned from Macedonia, have left again to Israel and Palestine and have returned last night. Stay tuned for loads of photos and some big news to share...

So, I've made it, stayed in Berlin for a while, got a routine again, felt home. After three months of keeping my feet still, I gotta get out again now! Thursday night, I booked a flight to Macedonia.

♥

Catch me if you can.

The past few days (and nights) I spent on updating my portfolio website >>carolinweinkopf.de<<. Go check it out!

I'm usually a brave girl, but frozen lakes scare me to death. Yesterday I gathered all my guts and jumped on Rummelsburger See. It was amazing.
