Elephants
Are loose in the Meatpacking District, a hotspot for art lovers. Its latest outdoor installation titled ‘The Great Elephant Migration’ aims to promote conservation and coexistence between humans and wildlife. And the best part?!

Relaxation
It’s been a while since I last had a spa day! So I went on a quest to find a nice and affordable place to enjoy a relaxing massage (not an easy undertaking in the world’s most expensive city). After hours reading through google reviews and comparing those outraged prices the luxury hotels offer, this…

The MET
It’s been a long bank holiday weekend! Last year, I spent Labor Day with my friend in Sonoma- check out my post here. This year, I’ve explored New York City a bit more. My highlight was the Metropolitan Museum of Art which I’ve visited on Friday and loved it! It’s full of art, artefacts, history…

Aaand Relax!
I made it home! To one of the lush green neighbourhoods Berlin has to offer. The recent rain cleaned the air and the fresh smell caries the scent of the conifers and blooming flowers. Today I woke up to the birds singing, and started the day with yoga & meditation. Followed by a tasty brunch…

Sparrow in disguise
This sight hit a nerve with me today. I spotted a little sparrow sitting on a barbwire when I, myself was searching for some nature to recharge. I felt sad to see him in this setting as ideally he should be surrounded by trees, plants and flowers. But he was singing his songs wholeheartedly which…

A walk in the park
After such a busy week I was craving some nature and thought the best way to spend a relaxed sunday morning is by getting a coffee and walking through Central Park. It was great seeing the trees blossom, the birds singing and the squirrels digging around. It’s so fascinating that this huge, loud and busy…
