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

Life

Life has been very exciting recently 

so much going on 

there is never a dull moment for sure 

i´m so overweamled by so many things that a need time to structur it 

on my business side of things my latest 
project has been a sucess, so far 

which is awesome

the feedback i´m getting from friends and family is just exciting

3rd week of detox challenge 
and well i´m feeling great
for me it is a little bit life changing 
i do like/love meat but i really don´t need it 
tofu and other supplements are great
a lot of blogs helped through it 
because the most challenging part is to cook 
to cook in such an exciting way as with meat is not that easy 
but i learned 
learned a lot 
and now i´m a veggie pro hahaha 
no not really but on a good way to be one
i like the challenge because of doing something different 
and well maybe i will stick to the "nomeat" thing 

ahhh aaaannnnddd
summer is here 
finally austria 
i can tell because no matter what i seam to do
(flat iron it, curl it, even cutting them, or just let it air dry) 
it ends up looking like a mess 

have a nice week 

xoxo

new weeks schedule & challenges

oh gosh

i can tell you my weekend was without words

i did a 3 days workshop with Tiffany Cruikshank

and i´m stunned 

i learned so much 

just... stunned 

but first here is my schedule for this  week 

so as you can see my challenge "doing yoga to be strong and slim by summer" is going on and on 

i´m trying to increase my weekly session up to 4

yeah 

how was your weekend?
mine was incredible

i learned so much about my body and my further training 

i haven´t even realised the full outcome yet 

the workshop with tiffany was 

a life changing thing, really

now i´m willing to go deeper into the yoga materie

10 reasons why i´m doing yoga 

+ to feel balanced 

+ to feel good 

+ Anti stress

+ endorphins 

+ energy 

+ fun 

+ fitness 

+ body awareness 

+ breath awareness 

+ life long training 

life is beautiful 

xoxo

new weeks schedule

whenever i feel stuck or miserable, 

i sneak into my little world of yoga

i´m grateful i came across yoga 

i discovered a lot since i practice it 

and i did so much progress 

now my challenge is to stay practice, practice, practice 

so that one day i´m able to do the crazy things 

but for now, and i mean right now

i would like to get ready for summer 

and i´m doing this with yoga 

3 times a week (or more) i practice yoga 

so that i can prove that yoga is just as good 

as any muscle training in a fitness studio

so go on and try it and you will see 

and if it is just for having a open mind 

and a open body - open heart

just to get rid of all that nasty stress and negativity 

we may carrie around

xoxo

life according to my Iphone

 

the last few weeks have been so much progressing

the trees bloom, the gras gets greener and finally 

summer erupted in all its multi colored splendor 

i´m so eager to be outside all day long 

gratitude for all of this 

gratitude for how very much i love this place 

it´s such a good time right now

happy next week

xoxo
