Have a great week.

Positano is probably one of the most beautiful places in the world. We stayed here for four days and didn't really do much. We were reading and relaxing by the water, went for many swims, ate a lot of lemon sorbet and other delicious food and went on a little boat trip to Capri....It was just wonderful. 

It is so fun to look at all our photos from the last weeks especially as it is still Winter here in Sydney and I am wearing a scarf and a beanie during the day and hold tight to my hot water bottle in the night. So the photos give me a nice warm feeling. 
We are out to find an apartment again today. Fingers crossed we will be lucky and find something nice.

Happy weekend,

Maria

Do you think photos without people are boring? I think they can be really calming....

Our trip to Italy was great. It is funny but it was my first real trip to Italy which for a German is a bit surprising as it is one of our number 1 travel destinations. I have only been once when I was 15 but this time we did quiet a tour and saw a lot. I would love to show you all the photos at once but I guess I have to go step by step....

Italy is such a wonderful country. I will probably say it in every post about this trip but the food we had was simply amazing. Tomatoes so red and sweet that all I wanted to eat all day was tomato salad but well there were of course also the pizzas, pastas, biscotti's, fruits gelati....you see, I could write about it for a long time.

The first couple of days we spent in Venice. Walking up and down the little bridges, eating ice cream, resting in parks, drinking a belini at Harry's bar and more walking, walking, walking....

Enjoy!

Another dinner - Same garden

You know the space already from a couple of prior posts. 
Above are moments from another Summer night back home, we made a great lentil soup with lots of herbs and veggies and had a great piece of Austrian hand made cheese for dessert. 

I landed in Sydney this morning. I have so many great memories from the last six weeks I and will be thinking about them a lot in the next weeks. It is a beautiful Winters day here today so I might go out for a walk now thinking about great Summer nights in beautiful gardens with great company....

Thank you so much for all your lovely comments. We really had such a great day with wonderful people around us, good food and some boogies - just how we wanted it. When I started planning I decided somehow not to write so much about the wedding here as it sometimes took over so much of my time anyway with preparing, crafting and all these things. But maybe there will be some more photos in the next weeks....


My six weeks here in Europe are coming to an end and on Monday I will fly back to Sydney. The last two weeks we spent in Italy but more about this soon.


Here are some more photos from our weekend in Hamburg in the beginning of July. 
Hope you are all well.
