Picnic

At the weekend I also had a lovely picnic at the high tower of the old fabric near me. The weather was just beautiful and warm, we had tea, cookies, sandwiches and that f***ing good blueberrycake my roommate made. Soooooo tasty.










The following pics took my friend Eike.

Stadtspaziergang mit Parkbogen Ost/ City Walk with Parkbogen Ost

Hallo,

this weekend I went to a city walk which was organised by the projekt Parkbogen Ost. The organisation has a vison how the east of Leipzig could be planned and renewed the next years. As you already should know from my blog, the east of Leipzig has a lot of parks and fallows. Parkbogen Ost suggests a plan which is meant to create a more pedestrian- and bike- friendly urban space. The plan is to provide an uninterrupted tour throug the east of Leipzig while connecting the parks in the citys east.

They also make city walks throug some of the stations in the east to show the citizens where and how the Parkbogen could be build. Saturday, they guided us throug a fallow space behind the main station, where a big american investor plans to build flathouses a school and to provide a bit public space. There, we also could visit parts of the construction side of City tunnel Leipzig. (english version)  In the past that space was possesion of the Deutsche Bahn, as the reforms of the german public financial sector kicked in they had to sell it to private investors or reinvest and reuse the fallow. The DB decided to sell it. The Parkbogen Ost is interested in reorganise that urban noland to a public space because it is one of the rare places in the innercity where people could have access to the riverside of the recently saved river Parthe . (english version) 

The pretty back of our beloved head station (exept the terrible cars, bah cars)

I know, I know

Dear readers,

I haven`t blogged for  a while. Because nothing really exiting is happening in the moment (which is a good thing for me, who gone throug a lot of stress this summer). As some of you may know I have submitted my bachelor thesis and I passed (first academic degree, jai). I also got the chance to make my master. The only thing is, I changed the subject. To be a masterstudent has a lot of advantages. My courses starting a week later than the courses of the bachelors, to choose the courses was sooooo easy and we are just a few students. So I had a lot of time to chill and search jobs the last weeks. Nevertheless I DID somethings but only boring things like strolling around and visiting parks and a flea market. But wait... I did something interessting. I visited the new exhibition in the Leipzig Art museeum. It shows famous pieces of pop art and photos of stars from the 50`s till the 90`s. I didn`t have photos because it wasn`t allowed to shoot some. The exhibition is called ''Leben mit Pop'' and ''A Star is born''.
