There is a project of mine that I am really passionate about. It combines my past with my current interest. In my neighborhood is a little shed which used to be a kiosk. It is placed very near to my old school. Sometimes we used to buy some sweets called “gemischte Tüte” – which is [...]
Many people sent me the link to this new food page called PornBurger.me. They sent it to me because I like burgers and that is right, but do I like this page? Not really, it is a different conception of food than I have in mind. I like my food basic, not to say simple. [...]
This post addressed to you, sun! This week we had a spring experience in Germany, in the second week of March! And it feels good. Since last Thursday we have you, the big yellow fire ball, guiding us through the days. And I just want to say thank you! There are several effects I like [...]

My dear friends Marcel, Martin, Florian and Philipp, who already created the beloved reading app Quote.fm, created this addictive game. Great job guys! The idea is to play a similar game to the also addictive [...]
Almost 230 days a year I travel from Düsseldorf to Bonn in the morning and back from Bonn to Düsseldorf in the evening. Most of the time I have my headphones on and listen to music. In the morning I like to start the day a bit smoother. With music that doesn’t stress me too [...]
