Back in Business.

Sunday, dawn til dusk. Berghain and Panorama Bar. The perfect homecoming.


Home is where the heart is — at Pflügerstraße.

Thank you Decibel Festival for an incredible journey into sound over the past 5 days, and to all the wonderful people we met along the way ♥

Farewell Vancouver. Until next time x

What I have been up to lately: New Forms Festival, 2012, Vancouver

New Forms Festival Post-mortem. I’ll miss these guys.

Zwei Wochen!

Sucker for punishment.

9pm Sunday night: Just responded to over 100 work emails and am now starting on the To Do list I wrote at 10am. Working festivals is glamourous… I swear.

“Absinthe makes the fart grow stronger” – accidental yet wise words from New Forms Festival‘s Volunteer Coordinator Sarena Strong

RIP Tacheles, Berlin (1990-2012).


Happy Birthday FBi. Thanks for the memories.

$409 for a Burning Man ticket? You gotta be rich to be a hippy these days.


I did a teddy bear headstand at yoga this evening. Happy I’m making progress.


Temperatures are rising at Open Studios… only 4 weeks until 
New Forms Festival.


4th mass shooting in 4 weeks. USA: how many more people have to die before you stand up to the gun lobby and make a change?

A policeman just randomly gave me this white rose and told me to have a lovely evening. #karma


Drooling (in a very unattractive, post-dentist way)

My Macbook is in the Apple emergency ward. And just 2 months out of warranty of course :(

Happy Pride, Vancouver.

Flora on the streets.

Best Olympic photo so far. And best caption too:
