October

Hamburg has three things in abundance: rain, sports cars, and oak trees. And bricks, that too. I can guess what neighborhood I’m in by the Porsche to oak tree ratio.

Did a double take when I walked past a dog that was half Dalmatian, half Pit Bull. He looked like an inexplicably buff but otherwise typical Dalmatian. Maybe a touch too short.

A friend on the subway explains to the other: „Of all the colds I had this year, this one was my favourite.“

I didn’t know what boredom really was until I stopped using any social apps (including Youtube). You just patiently exist, like an Apostle.

A Starbucks receipt cheerfully sits as a bookmark for a book about the peasant uprising of 1907. It’s both comforting and strange to know that all my problems will someday be someone else’s Starbucks read.


Ate some very German things at this cozy little tavern. The staff was kind enough to let me take this shot, the place was packed.
