Weekly Photo Challenge: Culture

Just this past week I was in a “music store” of sorts here in Germany and came upon this new section called, “black music.” In the U.S., I would say some would consider that almost racist or politically incorrect but in the German culture, to them this describes better the Rap/ Hip Hop genre.

Don’t believe me? See for yourself!!

What is your take? Would you find this offensive?!

Until next time, Readers!!! Xoxoxoxoxo

Weekly Photo Challenge: Foreign

For this weeks challenge I happened to come across a twist of “foreign” on something that is familiar. We all remember the “play food” as a child. The German children get German food. Complete with wurst and sauerkraut! And well as Swabisch soup and a breakfast set complete with Nutella! Take a look!

Weekly Photo Challenge: Everyday Life

Sometimes my own anxieties and fears get in the way of how incredibly blessed I am to have this experience. I forget that I’m an American girl given the opportunity to live in another country. My every day life is simple but different and in sync with the culture around me. Today I took the moment to look around and really see how beautiful the view from my backyard really is. The same place I see EVERY single day while walking our (American) dog, Harley. A view I certainly take for granted every day. Starting today, I will be 100 times more appreciative of the life I have and really just try to live in the moment!  Here’s my everyday life…enjoy!
