I DO!

Hello everyone! Happy New Week and Happy Last Monday of the month. In two days it will be December and one step closer to Christmas! YAY! Let's go to some exciting news now.
On Saturday we went to a live concert. Monika was in town and I wouldn't miss it for the world! She was AMAZING! Beyond words! Even though she had a cold she performed incredibly! And I also met by accident one of my fellow bloggers Alex from My Serendipity. She's so sweet! I can't wait to arrange a coffee date together and share lots and lots of crafty ideas!



Μόνικα - Exit
I didn't take any pictures though because we were sitting far in the back and I preferred enjoying the music rather than trying to get a good picture between the moving heads in front of me. We had so much fun! She is SO TALENTED and SOOO COOL! She doesn't feel or act like a star! She's so down to earth and friendly!
After the show we went for a drink to a bar and after that I was craving for a crepe or something so we head over to grab something to eat. And guess what! On the table next to us THERE SHE WAS! Monika and her band! I was so excited! I congratulated her on her performance and she was so kind to let us take a picture with her! She's so sweet!
The girl has a STAR! I'm sure we'll hear a lot about her in the future! She deserves her success! If you don't know who she is, you should! You won't be disappointed!

Berlin - Places We've Been

I thought I should make a separate post about all the places that we've been during our stay in Berlin. It was lovely. We went to all these cute little cafes and cozy bars! They have these "vintage" style. Most of them are decorated with old and worn furniture from past decades. Even the walls of even wallpapers are worn out and add a special touch to the whole atmosphere. Some of them have even drawings or graffiti from AMAZING artists, if I may add. Vintage stores and flea markets. Here you can find whatever you desire!
Marlene Dietrich's graffiti on a metro station.
A hidden antique store.
Huge graffiti!
 This is Jack Nicholson. It's not a picture.
Yes, it's graffiti art! AMAZING!
Vintage finds.

Alex, vintage store.
 Alex is Bulgarian but his
grandmother was Greek.
 He has this huge vintage store
 filled with many treasures!
I bought these lovely leather earrings.
and these other cute ones and the hair bow.
LOVELY!
A nice cafe that we went on Saturday morning.
Scotch & Sofa.
Hmm... maybe it was a gay bar or at least,
VERY gay friendly!
(not that this bothered us at all)
Yes, instead of an actual fireplace
they have an old TV!
Another fireplace-tv
Yeap, for a whole week we didn't eat properly on a restaurant
or anything like that. Just "wurst"!
This photo is from last January because I was too busy
eating these things rather than photographing them!
Ok, one night we went to an Italian restaurant
for pizza, but this doesn't count.
On Sunday we went to this place called Habana.
We had brunch with 8 euros. An endless table with
whatever you could imagine!
A long breakfast that looked like a lunch!
In the end of Winter they're used to
through their rain boots out of the windows!
An open flea market
Yes, the only day that was sunny!
No, we didn't sing! Huge audience!
 Beautiful shop's front window decoration
I want this Christmas tree!
(to be continued...)
