Unicorn diaries

This halloween I decided to be a rainbow unicorn. I don’ t like being something scary (I dislike all things scary) but I like the idea of dressing up as something else. I also did a gig in this beautiful outfit, I attached a little video above:-) There is really nothing more to say to that except: Always be yourself…unless you can be a unicorn. Then always be a unicorn. 

My birthday!

This year I celebrated my birthday in three different countries: First in LA - all by myself with a Quesadilla, then in London with my friends and finally in Germany with my family. I have received really beautiful gifts and amazing cakes but most importantly - not to sound corny -I enjoyed being around the people I love. In my family, the German side that is, we celebrate everyone’s birthday. Its a tradition. It’s one of the reasons I fly back to Berlin so often and frankly it is very important to me. But I had a great time in London as well, especially because I was surprised with this super cute birthday table which was really nice after a 10 hour flight! Thats it for today <3 span="">

LA - Nothing good comes easy

In October I took a rather spontaneous trip to Los Angeles, California. I have been spending a long time looking for producers who could really get my sound right and seemingly out of nowhere came this opportunity to record my EP in LA with pretty much the best team I could have asked for. I’ ve been there for a bit more than two weeks and I m not gonna lie, it was very stressful. There was a lot of pressure and a lot of administrative stuff I had to deal with, all whilst I had to be my most creative. But as they say “nothing good ever comes easy” and I think I have managed quite well (You’ ll hear the new songs next year!) Back in London I had some extreme version of insomnia, I couldn’t sleep for weeks. This was partly due to the jet lag but also due to the fact that it was hard to calm down after this trip. I kept worrying about stuff and it left me sleepless. Only after I went back to Germany for a few days it got better. Now I m back to my sleeping pattern of a 6 month old baby. The more I am dealing with this industry, the more I start to understand that faith, patience and persistence are the things that matter most. You can’t fail if you don’ t quit! ;-) On that note, have a lovely week <3 span="">
