Took this picture at our night out on Saturday (so, technically it was already Sunday morning) inside the Independent Bar in Orlando. As usual we had a great time and enjoyed the music, lots of 80s and new wave, just the right mix to dance and have fun.The inside reminds me a lot of the [...]
This month’s Alive After Five street party was of course all about the holidays, therefore the name choice “Cheers to the Holidaze”. Fortunately the heavy rain stopped right around 3:30pm and so the event was on! Even though the event wasn’t as busy as usual it was still a big success. Of course, there was [...]
This year I was finally able to attend a real Midnight Madness. Even though I didn’t buy anything (too confusing and crowded) I am glad I went. It was a cool experience and kind of exciting to go to a mall at midnight. Here’s a short video: Pin It

Aldi is open in Sanford! This makes me especially happy and proud because growing up in Germany, Aldi is almost as much part of German culture as BMW or Mercedes (yes, Aldi is a German company, the most popular discount grocery store in Germany). Thinking back, Aldi has always been one of the grocery stores [...]
