Blog 7: Frohes Neues Jahr 2018- Leben wie ein Stehaufmännchen
English Version Am Silvesterabend schossen mir Tausende von Gedanken durch den Kopf. Als ich einen Beitrag von einer meiner ältesten Freundinnen J gelesen habe, kamen eine Menge Erinnerungen zurück. Sie hat ein Foto gepostet, das ein paar Tagen vorher während ihres sechsten Hochzeitsjubilium aufgenommen wurde und uns beide lächelnd zusammen zeigte.

Her theory didn’t only help me to draw, but also open my eyes to the details normally ignored and forgotten and see the world from a totally new perspective.
