Calendar Page: April

Hey readers,
you haven't heard from me since like...a month ago, I guess. But here I am again with the short reminder that a new month has started. It's April, our all favourite one when it comes to weather...not. But still a very lovely one, especially because spring's coming up here and sun is beginning to shine through the clouds, I could even catch some sunrays today (soo incredible, I know!).
The calendar page is about a very cute and happy animal with an even more happy saying on it, which is LIFE IS GOOD - So true!

To get my selfmade page just clich HERE, like always, and download its printable version.
Have a beautiful and happy April!
Til next time (or even month ;))
Cheers <3

Selfmade calendar: February

Guess what? Already one month of 2016 is over and this means there's a new calender page waiting for you! Excited? Then click HERE to download the free february.
Every beginning of a month I post the belonging calendar page. You can do with it whatever you want, just leave it on your computer or press the print button and decorate your wall with it. I think that calendars are always a good decoration because they are not only there to make your home look beautiful but also to inform you which date we're at :) In my room I hung up 3 different calendars this year so I will never miss a date I hope.

What about you? Do you also have this kind of addiction to beautiful calendars and how many of them did you hang up this year?

The travel mood caught me off guarded

Today I received an e-mail from a friend who is spending one year in India. I was very curious what she was writing about cause I am always interested in what she is experiencing there. As I’ve been a bit worried about her because three weeks ago she told me that she and her group were planning a trip to Nepal at the beginning of May – yes, exactly the time the earthquake took place there - I was very glad to hear that they changed their route to a trip through northern India.

So they’re currently staying in a town near Delhi and working at the German Bakery at the riverside of ‘Ganges’, the big holy river thats water may be good for your body and soul if you have a bath (or some more:)) in there. I find it incredible, that she made it there and then got a job at this well known bakery that I just saw in a movie last week!

When I read her e-mail for the first time, I immediately had to think of the German movie “Beste Chance” where a girl is searching for her best friend in Delhi and ending up in this bakery at the riverside of Ganges deciding to stay there for longer to free her soul and find to her true self. I found myself smiling of this coincidence…because if I hadn’t brought the movie home from the library and watched it, I wouldn’t have known that such a beautiful place even existed, let alone what it looked like. I love these movies that make me wanna pack my own backpack and just go wherever it takes me. 

Do you also have this feeling when watching a movie related to travel? Maybe you have some kickass movie recommendations for me? ;)

In this moment the excitement got me and I wanted to feel like I was also spending some time there. So I picked up a pen and my small sketchbook, looked at some pictures from this beautiful place again and started drawing. I almost felt like I was sitting there on a wooden chair, by myself, just watching the people passing the bridge and the turquoise water floating down the river.

How beautiful this must be. I like to have these imagined trips to foreign places. It’s a great method to overcome your wanderlust a bit and have a travel adventure at home. If you haven’t tried it yet, what are you waiting for? Besides sketching it also works with a lot of other cool things:)
