Vietnamese food in Chinatown!

I do miss all these cakes, dumplings and rice dishes. It reminds me of home.

It is very funny though, I live in Germany, but at home we're having vietnamese food.

I wish I could make them, when I'm back, my mum has to teach me how! Vietnamese dessert is soo sweet and sticky, love it! It's not everyone's taste but I grew up with it.

How to describe vietnamese cuisine?

I care.

My last article for the college's student newspaper came out today. I wrote about the Earth Week at my college, its activities and if the college is really 'green'.

At the green festival in NY, we've got a lot of information about going green and how small steps can make a difference. I think that people would like to do something in order to go green but they are just too busy to really think about it. 

Right now I am trying to find a balance between my shopping habits, consumption itself and being green because after I had time to do some research and watching documentaries now I think twice what and where I buy.

Would you like to join me?

Dear New York,

you make me happy ♥

A day with me in the city could look like this =)

There is a lot more to see in this wonderful place! I love it, I am definitely coming back as soon as possible! But for now, I am trying to spend every minute here to explore more things and moments.

You want to know, where we've been?

Peace. Love. Harmony.

 

Back in March I was able to go to two concerts: Gentleman and Nneka!

I was very surprised that they've performed in NY because they are really well known in Europe but the U.S.? 
Anyway, I was happy that I could see them here, the venues were small, it wasn't too crowded and I enjoyed it!

It was the first time for Gentleman performing in the city and Nneka had a lot of fans coming. For me, it was like vacation, to forget your stressful life and to feel the moment.

Incredible singers and great shows! Very inspiring people.

Opening Act at Gentleman's show: Meta and the Cornerstones

One of my favorite songs from Nneka's album Soul is heavy

Stand up for love,

Earth Day

The weather is getting better, I am spending every weekend in NYC, at least one day and I am doing fun stuff, either on my own or some of my friends are joining me.

A week ago, it was Earth Day and after hitting the green festival in the city my friend Franzi and I, we've been to a fashion show of students from Parsons, the New School. They showed some recycled fashion and reused old fabrics.

It's amazing what you can do with old clothes, just redesign it ;-)

I like the black dress with the golden bracelets a lot, it could be a little bit too loose.
