past adventures, future plans

Some weeks ago, me and my friend Laura drove off to Berlin to attend the incredible CTM festival. I was mostly looking forward to see WIFE play, and also d'EON. But this festival had so much more to offer! The visit was more about discovering new artists, which worked out pretty well. We were not only impressed by artists like Holly Herndon, Forest Swords or Kuedo (oh my, KUEDO!) but also the location itself, Berghain, which I had never been at, before. This place alone would make me wanna move to Berlin..maybe someday I will put these plans into action. 

But that was not all of the awesomeness we experienced. We also took part in a photo-tour through an abandoned sanatorium near Berlin, called Beelitz Heilstätten. Usually, trespassing is not aloud in this place, but there are guided tours which you can book here and you're allowed to take pictures within a generous timeframe of 5 hours. But you should probably choose a time in summer, to not freeze your hands off, like we did. ;)

Here is one of my favourite photos, make sure to check out the rest of them here. I'll keep uploading some more day by day until I get tired of it, I guess. ;)




















Unfortunately, because I am a noob with DSLR cameras, I took most of the pictures with my mobile phone, so the quality is very low, but I am more practicing perspectives right now, and I guess the pictures are still worth looking at. :)

And as the headline already inclines, there are some more plans. I am going to England in March, more precisely, MANCHESTER! Huzzaah! And yes, I might take some pictures there, aswell. But the main reason for my visit is this.


Before last week, the line up was only HOLY OTHER and WIFE and "Special Guests". So I was wondering who could possibly add more awesome to this already perfect line up. I did know TOURIST before, but BEARCUBS is a completely new discovery and fits perfectly to the sound of HOLY OTHER and WIFE. It's just going to be superamazing, and would you look at that price please?! And may I remind you that I paid more than double the price to see HOLY OTHER play as support for Beach House here in Munich!?

I really do live in the wrong place, don't I?
