The sun was shining over Düsseldorf

When there is no time to go for lunch I take my Landjäger* and eat them with strawberries in the sun. This is a feast too. *Landjäger is a German sausage. I have 2 kinds in my car, one with Bison and one with Boar, Deer and Lamb.

I do a lot of off-road driving

After getting the 7th comment on the dirtiness of my car it was more then clear to me how important surface is to Düsseldorf. My car sure is dirty, but Hey Düsseldorf, komm mal klar. Why would anyone even bother about the dirtyness of someone elses car? Even more so when you don’t even know the person? Waste of energy, … Read More

Safe Travels

Sometimes I am Superstitious. But, as with everything, as long as it stays within reasons it is ok. When it comes to my Safe travel Saint Necklace I do not mind being superstitious at all. Saint Patrick is the Catholic patron saint for travel safety. I keep him close to my heart. Maybe he was the one that made sure … Read More

March cats. or Paris in March.

Paris is so beautiful in March. It is dusty.  And when the sun is shining through you get a shimmering glow over everything. It is not the buildings, or the people, or the food that strikes me. It is this dusty shimmer that makes everything so beautiful. Like if you used a softening filter on your camera. Or in Photoshop. … Read More
