I was totally lost during this week, I thought Tuesday was Monday and Wednesday was Thursday…haha Also, today was the last day of our german integration course, after 7 months I can say that I improved a lot! I’ll write more about that next week 😉

Here are my 5 favourite things of this week:

1- Sea World announced this week that they will end the orca shows in San Diego, for me as a biologist and as a person who cares about animal welfare this was a win, I hope that they will also stop it in the other parks as well;

2- I admit that I’m a Friends addict, don’t know exactly how many times I’ve watched the show, for me it will never get old, I’ll laugh over the same jokes for ever! Although my favourite character is Joey, Ross sometimes makes me laugh hard. “The one with Ross’s tan” is one of my top ten favs! You can see here 31 Friends jokes that never get old;

3- The Barbie evolution across 56 years, 1971 was my favourite! But during my childhood my Barbie’s style were the 1994 and 95;

4- This amazing audio of Freddie Mercury & David Bowie singing Under Pressure A capella gave me goosebumps!

5- How would you behave if your 18 year old self interviewed your future self? Peter Emshwiller had that idea when we was a teen, and after 38 years he wants to finish that project. Here is a video sample of “Later that same life“….curious and funny!

Hope you have an amazing weekend!

This week was a slow one, Fall break ended last Friday, so that means we had German course this week. We attended class in the mornings (german language seems to be getting harder…and harder 😦 ), and spent the afternoons at home…same old, same old. But it’s good to have a calm week sometimes 😉

Here are my 5 weekly favourites:

1- Rafael and I went to the movies to watch Alice in Wonderland on our first date night, back in 2010 😮 This week was released a new trailer of Alice in Wonderland 2: Through the Looking Glass, can’t wait to see it! Who doesn’t like Johnny Depp as the Mad Hatter, am I right?! hahaha;

2- Honest “Monopoly”cards that are almost too relatable;

3- I’ve always wanted to travel to Barcelona and see Gaudí’s work, now, after 133 years later, the Sagrada Família has entered its final stage of construction;

4- After reading Anthony Bourdain’s 6 punishable-by-death sushi don’ts, I’d be dead right now! haha;

5- I know that Halloween already came and went, but sorry for being obsessed with my awesome Mexican sugar skull!

Have a lovely and blessed weekend!

Be Happy 😀

Wow, this week for me practically flew by, I started a new embroidery project that I will share when its done 😉

Here are my 5 weekly favourites:

1- This 3 minute video about the evolution of Wedding Gowns, the 70’s dress is my favourite ❤

2- This week David Bowie confirmed a new album,”Blackstar”, that will arrive on his 69th birthday on the 8th of January. Can’t wait!

3- Berlin is so beautiful in the Fall, I took that picture last weekend during a little stroll around our neighbourhood Neukölln…I feel so blessed 🙂

4- Timelessly stylish rock icons to inspire your Halloween costume. To be honest I would wear that easily on my day-to-day life!

5- Sneak peak on Rafael’s mask for Halloween, I just finished plaster casting his face. It was so fun doing that, I will post the final result next week 😉

Have a wonderful weekend and a scary Halloween! Mua ha ha!

Almost feeling good as new after the terrible cold I caught last week. Rafael took great care of me as usual (truth is, I love being spoiled by him sometimes…hahaha). Looking forward to the weekend, tomorrow is supposed to be a sunny day here in Berlin….YAY!!!

Here are my 5 Weekly Favs:

1- My favourite Brazilian rock psychedelic band, Os Mutantes, is getting a new photography book (A Hora e a Vez), with unpublished pictures taken during the period of 1969 – 1974 by Leila Lisboa….Oh how I love the 70’s!

2- Nerd alert! hahaha..even more excited to watch “Star Wars – The Force Awakens” after its new trailer 😀

3- Amazed by these artsy embroidered pieces custom made by Maricor/Maricar;

4- Rafael made this very cool illustration of Isaac Asimov as gift a for one of our friends, which he loved of course! You can check out more of his illustrations on Pinterest;

5- Gustav Klimt is one of my favourites artists, this week I discovered that the photographer Inge Prader recreated Klimt’s most iconic work with real-life models…the result is stunning!

Have a wonderful weekend and be happy 🙂

TGIF! For me this week passed really slow, sometimes I get irritated over dumb things and that usually kills the good mood in the house, if there’s one thing I need to learn to control, it’s my temper. Also, everyone at my german class is sick, and for my bad luck I caught it too, luckily Rafael didn’t. At least we get to stay home for the next two weeks, it’s Autumn break around here…yay!

Here are my 5 weekly favourites:

1- Best wildlife photograph by National Geographic, you can see here 11 of the year’s best wildlife photographs;

2- Mademoiselle Privé, a Chanel’s exhibition is taking place at Saatchi Gallery in London. It’s a journey through the origins of Chanel’s creations capturing the charismatic personality and irreverent spirit of Mademoiselle Chanel and Karl Lagerfeld. Wish I was there to visit!

3- The chicest movie posters of all time, I fell in love with that Black Swan’s poster;

4- Popular brands logos brilliantly mashed up with famous paintings;

5- How beautiful are these embroidered piece of nature by Oly Shamrik?!

Have a wonderful weekend!

And if you are in Germany, Schönes Ferien!
