Hi everyone, 
Thank you so much for all your comments on my last post. I will show you soon some more spots of our apartment. 

Here are some snaps from last Sunday when we went to the beach. It was so warm and beautiful in the sun so I decided to go for my first swim this Spring. The water was freezing but oh it was refreshing. I can't wait for my early morning swims, I think I'll start this routine very soon again.

When I was in Tokyo this year Hiki showed me a wonderful camera shop where I bought some film I never shot with before. 
I loaded my camera last weekend with an ISO 800 film and got quiet excited about the grainy effect. 
Here some corners of our new apartment.

It is getting warmer and warmer in Sydney these days but when I think of the colder Winter days of the last months I also think of the warm wool jumpers (one) which brought me through this colder period of time. 
I was lucky to get my hands on some pieces from Primoeza  this year and can I tell you how much I adore Elizabeth's work. 
Apart from the soft wool she uses for her collection which is so soft on your skin I also really love the many details of her work: patches, stitches, buttons, the shape of necklines or the fabric of an inner pocket, every details seems so well thought through.

It is Spring here in Sydney.

I am listening to a lot of new music lately, also thanks to Spotify I feel like I am coming across all sorts of new artists but also music I remember that I loved and I hurry up to make sure to add all these tracks to my playlist to treasure them. 

I also realize that I don't know so many lyrics by heart anymore like I did a couple of years ago. I would know every track by name of a favorite CD of mine, would also know their order and already know by the end of a song what the next one will be. 

At the moment I like to be surprised when I listen to music, don't want to get bored, I am curious about new sounds and bands but also go back in time when I listen to beloved old songs and sometimes wonder how I could forget about them.

The other Sunday we had lunch at a new-ish place in Marickville called Cornersmith. I had a great beetroot sandwich there and an even better apple ricotta muffin (which I couldn't take a photo off as we ate too fast) :)

The weeks are flying by again and it is Spring here in Sydney now and Summer seems just right around the corner. I can't wait to go for my early morning swims very soon. 

We are so happy after moving into our new place and I hope I can soon show you some photos of the new apartment, I might take some photos on the weekend.

Thank you so much for all your kind comments on my last post. We just moved into our new place an I hope I can show you some photos soon. We still have so many things to do.

The other Sunday a friend from Melbourne visited us and we went to the Biennale of Sydney which mainly takes place on Cockatoo island, just a ferry ride away from the center of the city. 

What are your plans for the weekend?

We are back in Sydney since a couple of weeks and are still thinking so much of the great time we had back in Germany and Italy. I wanted to show you some photos of the wonderful day we had in July.
