Auf dem Jagd nach Spass und Neuigkeiten

Early bird gets the gains, such is true in physical training and life. Been a while since I got to the gym while it was dark. Looking forward to today. Everyday can be used to get closer to something better☺️💪🏾 (hier: Nysc 115)

The Collapse: The Accidental Fall of The Berlin Wall by Mary Elise Sarotte- on my reading list immediately. What a fantastic talk by the author, the photo in the picture shows one of the more memorable moments of East Germans leaving East Berlin for the West. I even got her perspective on the transition from communism to democracy while she was living there. Too much fun! Thanks to #ACG and @gi_newyork for a wonderful event. Freu mich auf das nächstes! 😀🇩🇪 (hier: Goethe-Institut New York)

Under the 59th street bridge earlier tonight. The little things that make up the beauty in our surroundings. Sometimes taking a moment is necessary😄 (hier: Vernon Blvd)

Sunday games with this view in background after rain. Not a mad way to spend an afternoon 😉 (hier: Astoria, Queens)

Yeah I went clubbing on a Saturday morning, and? Wait did I say clubbing? Cuz I meant I went to yoga *at* a club 😉. Loving deep house yoga this early in the day. What a treat! Thanks @verbotennewyork !! (hier: Verboten)

Remembering this hue he first time I left this coast. Better about this time, is that it won't be the last time j see pacific sunset. Count on it. #NextAct (hier: Oakland Coliseum, Home of the Oakland Athletics)

And so we come to this juncture again,watching the sunset on this particular visit but leaving with clear point of focus and goal in mind. It's not goodbye, it's more like I'll see you again very soon good friend. (hier: Embarcadero)

Rare that I take photos in office lobbies, but this living wall is something that is a little too cool for me to ignore. Just the kind of touch the west coast would have 😉 (hier: Along Howard Street)

"Wer immer nach streben sich bemüht, den können wir erlösen". Feeling unreal after this trip out here. Looking forward to some new possibilities from here on out😉 (hier: Twin Peaks (San Francisco))

Mini intermission today walking through golden gate park when we hit this waterfall before stow lake 😉 (hier: Golden Gate Park)

"Jenner by Sea: population 170" Yesterday, the beach got elevated to a whole new level when we went to the Sonoma Coast. The Russian Gulch Beach is something to be admired. I've never been to a beach this gorgeous in the United States. Water so blue, dark sand, the views...It's no wonder people from California are always bragging 😉. This is definitely a happy place. Can't wait to come back. (hier: Russian Gulch Beach)

Yesterday I went on a hike in the Redwoods. It's the first time I've been to a nature preserve like this. It's something everyone should experience once. Aside from how beautiful it is, how old and deep the forest goes makes one think about how small one is, place in life and how we can continue to survive and thrive while keeping our original composition. When you get a chance, come and see it for yourself. (hier: Armstrong Redwoods State Natural Reserve)

As we get into the afternoon, I have found a new California favorite called Zahel. Orange infused white wine. Dry, smooth delicious. A great start to the afternoon! (hier: Bay Grape)

Spending the late part of Saturday morning at the farmers market grabbing all the local fare NorCal has to offer! (hier: Grand Lake Farmers Market)

Hustle & Bustle of a downtown SF afternoon. Cable cars, palm trees and vibrant west coast folks finally happy its the weekend. 😊 (hier: San Francisco Ferry Building)

West Coast USA: Hanging at Jack London Square with @lyzkeating after a nice bike. An easy afternoon.😌 (hier: Jack London Square)

"Change the world from here" it's written all over the place. Up here for a quick visit. I also think it's the first week of classes so it's pretty vibrant on campus. A bit of a pleasant flashback to simpler times.😊📖✒️📇 (hier: University of San Francisco)
