long time

wow folks 

it has been a long time 

i can say i´m sry

but honestly i´m not

actually i´m super happy and super busy rigth now 

so that i had to limit my hobbies to zero

time just gets away from me these days

i dont know how people do it

8h sleep, 6h work, 2h cooing each day, 2h sport, rest working on my master thesis.. 

...

so whats new? 

1.
since 4 month i´m working as an consultant in one of austrias best envrionmental company

and i´m over the top happy about it 

my colleques are perfect and my boss is.. i dont have a name 

awesome would be wrong but.. 

But the shady side is that i dont have plenty of time to do other things i love 

2. 

this month i did a yoga teacher training

within november i´m certified 

yeah 

this training was all about pregnancy, post natal training and mother-baby yoga 

i love it! it is so fascinating how those little ones respond to their mother 

even when they are not born yet 

3. 

ah well Yeah i did a halfmarathon!!! 

my friends popped this glorious idea to run one 

and in a hush-hush operation we sigend up for it 

well not the best idea of the year because we had virtually no time to train 

BUT we did it and i have to say i´m a little bit praud 

22 km in 2h 24m 

(biggest sport event i did so far) 

4.  

finally i got some time for friends

and what we can do best we did 

EATING 

we had a wonderful nigth in a super little resaurant called "tapasta"
where we booked a six wine dégustation accompanied by a six course meal

FOOD HEAVEN

you know how i love to eat and i´m doing my best to try everything 

and do everything 

but this day i did nothing 

only enjoy

Hello France (part 1)

vacation happend 

2 weeks in "le france"

i wanted to be in France for some time now and was super happy as we decided to go there for our big summer vacation.. at 4am we drove to the airport to get ready what should have been an amasing vacation, but unfortunatly the "dear" weather god (i don´t know who he is, but i´m clearly pissed at him) was not on our side - instead of 2 weeks of sunny over the top summer feeling we just got

one day, ONE DAY of sun and blue sky

The first 10 days we stayed at a apartment hotel "Goélía" (it´s just our thing for vacation to be self- caterer) in Mimizan (southwest down, near Bordeaux) well it was O.K. but not super special.. unexpected we had to pay extra for toileteries and bed sheets..but it wasn´t that bad, we took it with humor.

the first night at 4am it started to rain and we were fascinated by the really great thunderstorm over the sea.. 

 (we did´t know yet what consequences this should bring) 

... 

the sun was away for 8 days in a row.. NICE

we did our best to stay confident, we thought "maybe it will get better tomorrow" but
the forecast told us another story.. 

so we had to do the best...and...we did 

we went straight up to the next surfschool near us and booked surfing classes.

we had SO much fun.. we kissed the waves truley every 14 seconds but it was SO worth it

so the "nosunsummervacation" was forgotten the instant we got into the water 

Vacation Saved 

take a glimpse of what we captured 

Hello Vienna (part 3)

this one will be a little bit shorter

but absolute worth every  step we took 

so after 2 days of wanderlust around vienna 

i decided (yes me, the boys had nothing to say about our tour to go)

we hit schönbrunn palace, gardens and zoo 

so just around 6h of walking again with a stop to eat lunch 

so off we are 

schönbrunn palace 

it is so full of baroque glory this old hunting chalet 

we just spend the day in the freezone such as the park and formal gardens 

surrounding Schönbrunn 

and what can i say

i love gardens and those are typical French Baroque gardens on the ground,

getting more natural English style in the elevated, more distant parts 

the "Neptunbrunnen" marks the center of the garden

and is aligned with the "Gloriette Palace" on a hill overlooking Schönbrunn

after wandering down again we started to get hungry 

so we had lunch @brandauers 

typical food such as spareribs , schnitzel and cordon bleu

OR apfelstrudel 

afterwards we went to Schönbrunn Zoo 

it is super nice when having kids and grandparents who are bored 

but also for tourists like us

it is not the biggest but it is nice to look at because of its baroque cages 

after spending the whole day outside 

we were glad for staying home 

we had a little "Brettljause" for dinner (a typical cold dish with sausage, cheese and bred) 

and went straight to bed 

-no yoga no sport today- 

before we said goodbye he got a special dish for lunch 

"Kaiserschmarrn & Erdbeerknödl" 

goodbye dear best friend from germany! 

thx for having you here and for such a great vacation feeling

Hello Vienna (part 2)

2nd day

so much walking

so we started after a little breakfast

just ordinary joghurt with fruits and for Flo just apricot cake (i baked 2 days before)

after we headed for the first district

our city center or as we say "inner city" 

it is framed by the Ringstraße (which we did on our first day) 

i love this area

it is full of beautiful medieval buildings and it also concentrates the vast majority

of all see-worthy attractions 

so we started with the Stephansdom cathedral 

further we took our tour along the "rotenturm"Street 

to "Graben" and "Kohlmarkt" up to "Hoher Markt"

there we enjoyed the "Anker Uhr" (a Jugendstil clock)

  our most luxury shopping areas (looking was good enough)  

around the corner is "Am Hof" Square with beautiful churches (such as Kirche am Hof)

after we walked to the "Judenplatz" Square, with it´s Jewish Museum

nearby the oldest church in Vienna "Ruprechtskirche" 

all that walking made us very hungry so we met MrM for lunch @Figlmüller 

home of our famous "Wiener Schnitzel" + the perfect potato salad

very best Schnitzel in town

so back on track 

we headed back along the "Kärnter Street" (another shopping street) 

to our beautiful opera which is next to the "Albertina" (museum)

further we went to "Naschmarkt" the biggest farmers market 

with lot of restaurants and bars

off to yoga!

we met all in the evening for dinner @vapiano

(i know, it has nothing to do with vienna, but the food...) 

day two accomplished

Hello Vienna (part 1)

today i´m talking about our tour through the beautiful vienna

vienna is a wonderful city with so much to see and so many beautiful areas full of
small perfect restaurants, coffee shops (the best EVER), boutiques and of course great architecture

i love vienna and it´s little districts

a great place to walk around or just sit down and have a coffee or some sweets

 my best friend from germany (Flo) visited us for 3 whole days (+2half)

it is quite a task to see vienna in only 3 days! i can tell

so a lot of planing especially planing what food to start with

we actually have a lot to eat.. 

so we started with our beautiful "mariahilfer"street - a big shopping street

all day long from "Museumsquatier" to parliament and our townhall

till we ended up right before the "Votiv"-chruch

all in all something about 4h of walking

in the afternoon we were eager to do some exercise 

me bikram yoga and the boys headed to the fitness center

after, we met for dinner @ Burger de Ville

best burger in town (i can tell, i´m THE bruger girl) 

burger and super yummy fries 

and after so much good food 

we actually had the best ice cream in town 

@ Eis- Greissler

**better picture will come as soon as a get there the next time

super perfect tasty yummy delicious ice cream 

day one accomplished

xoxo

where to start...

i love blogging 

and i´m seriously sorry for posting so slopy

i really don´t know how people can keep up with a daily blog 

after a long day of work, learning, writing and teaching?

but anyway, my life is just perfect right now 

i hope you had a great week? 

this was one of the first in a while where i realized whats happening in my life 

it is a journey, and for that reason, it´s not just one big event..

my new job, my half finished master thesis, yoga class i give, my friends i have time to meet with 

and really i´m trying my best to keep it that way

i take each moment and put love into it - so that i will end up with a life that is filled up with love

so life lately

right now i´m struggeling with my sport scheldule a lot 

because of my new job and my master thesis my free time is around 0

so for now my scheldule is all about: Yoga (ashtanga/bikram) and running

the funniest story happend last week 

my best university friend "hannal" wrote me a sms just to inform me that we will run a 

halfmarathon in octobre.. my eyes just bulged out the second i read it

so now i have to train for it too - which is quite hard,

because according to the running plan i should at least run 4 times /week 

haha ok - we will see that

but not only i have struggles with sport but also with my diat

i need so much energy and because of that i´m not eating the healthiest way :/ 

it is really unnerving and frusttrating 

but NOW without being a real student any more with lot of time for cooking 

i´m realizing how hard it is to eat properly 

and there are those little things- just like when a colleague is bringing something 

super nice but super "not healthy" and you don´t want to say No Thanks because maybe it´s offending him 

wow yeah i know that now 

but slowly i will find a way 

and my routine will come back again (soon i hope)

lately i scrolled down my old posts and i had a lot of goals!
so here we go again
my goals for August:


my mantra of the month:

JUST DO IT ANYWAY

have a truly wonderful week
xoxo
