⟶ Berlin (Part I)

Recently we did a bit of travelling about the place - Berlin being our first stop. We spent four days exploring the city with the help of a good friend. The city itself is like no other place I have encountered. Our first day was spent trawling through the Mauerpark Flea Market, relaxing in the sunshine & wandering to different points of interest. Our entire time away ended up being less touristy & more about finding donuts, coffee & good things in different neighbourhoods. We covered the main 'must see' things pretty much every place we went but the best times were the unexpected ones. Mauerpark was amazing. I furnished imaginary houses a thousand times over & watched people find treasures amongst it all. Surprisingly we didn't buy anything except beer, pastries & tofu burgers. This is definitely a place I would like to visit again & again.  

Waiting for Karaoke to begin
Sunshine, food, music, all the good things... no wonder the park was so crowded.

Beautiful furniture, plates, cutlery, glasses...anything & everything.
I have trawled through the photographs from our trip & will try to keep it brief but expect to see a fair bit more from Berlin soon. Then onto Copenhagen, Edinburgh & The Broch. It's lovely to be back home in London, although future travels are already on the horizon.

Happy Monday everyone!

Hello Society

My prediction for Wednesday was accurate (glorious sunshine - any sunshine is glorious at the moment) and I actually managed to do the things I had planned! A walk to Regents Park & coffee at a place just down the road I've never been to (coffee was P E R F E CT well, for me anyway. Soy ahoy!) I also made some Lentil Soup for dinner and Parsley & Walnut Pesto which was a bit more difficult in our miniature food processor than I had anticipated. So today it's sunny again and I've been good spending my time getting stuff done at home, although the kitchen is still rather messy from the pesto episode...  

Flowers in the house, sunshine beginning to make an appearance...perhaps Spring really is on the way
I am even contemplating venturing somewhere tonight that requires me to catch the tube! Hello Society!
