A few instagrams from our Berlin weekend with 60 (!) of my students a few weeks ago.

Berlin | accommodation and breakfasts

We stayed in a wonderful apartment on Angermünder Straße, which was just lovely. We rented it on wimdu and loved the whole experience. We'll definitely give it another go next time we travel!

The flat where we stayed doesn't seem to show up on the website at the moment, but it was owned by Philippe, who was a great host and has other properties that look just as wonderful.

The location was amazing, it was super clean, really trendy... we couldn't have picked a better place to stay! 

And we loved having breakfast just down the road here and here.

Still here!

Hi everyone!
I haven't been here much lately; sorry!

It's been b-u-s-y in our neck of the woods! Mart became a doctor, his parents were here to visit, we went to Bruges (Belgium) for a weekend with them, just came back from Berlin (Germany) where we spent 4 days with his mum, work has been super duper busy... it all meant that I didn't have the time nor energy to get to blogging in the evening. 
:-)
And there's our wedding right around the corner which we should be planning, but there has been pretty much no time for that either lately. Must get to it. Soon.

Hmmm... and now that I'm finally logging in on blogger again, it seems like they've definitely forbidden me to use the very (very!) old platform I was so fond of... let's see if I can get used to this brand new and sleek-looking one!

A few weeks ago one of my colleagues brought me a packet of this candy back from a day-trip in Germany. She ate it throughout her whole childhood and when she heard I had never tried it, she fixed that instantly. I'm so glad she did: it was super yummy, and I thought the inner packaging was super cute. Don't you think?

Sushi, cocktails and cakes

We spent our Sunday just over the border, in Aachen (Germany).
Such great food, drinks and laughs... and not many photos to prove it. :-)

It was sad to see Michelle and Ben go yesterday...

Happy Sinterklaas everyone!
