Yesterday Thomas and me got back from one of my favourite spots in Turkey, Olympos. I go there every year since 1999 and i am glad i did it again, just hanging out by the sea, watching dogs, reading, help produce and drink wine,awesome…Thomas absolutely loved it! Right behind the hotel is an ancient city within a kind of secret garden and some bits are really well preserved, specially the roman bath.Most people stay in kind of tree houses, well actually wooden huts standing very close to trees and in the back of the hotel there are about 40 citrus and grenadine trees.
Serenity…
Thanks Semra for being such a great host, we might be back in winter!

Yesterday i was invited to a faboulous event at the “Pinakothek der Moderne”, kind of Munich´s MOMA. The event was hosted by german mega publishing company Hubert Burda, they do all kinds of get togethers for females in the fields of art, culture, media and fashion. While the other girls were listening to the speeches downstairs i sneaked up the stairs and enjoyed a wonderful private tour.
Most impressive i found the work of Cindy Sherman, Sarah Lucas, Pipilotti Rist and
Birgit Jürgenssen.
Apperently photography was the first art form accessible to females since women were not allowed to conservatories etc. back in the 19th century, so the ones with appropriate background started of expressing themselves like the Comtesse de Castiglione.With Pierre Lois Piesson`s help, she was her own photographer back in 1856.
Thanks Hubert Burda for the invite and the fab goodie bag!

Yay, the video for “senin senin”, my semi turkish song has been edited, i just love it!!!!
It is actually a remix version of the album version that inspired us to do something funny and sexy at the same time. We shot it in a brothel a while ago and i am NOT the dancer in the video…
I have no clue how to embed the direct link( i must go see Matthias) but this is how i can do it for now:

Brooklyn is a cool place but the coolest thing about Brooklyn is definetely Pat. She is such a talented, funny young woman, absolutely hilarious. Her friend Brixx, a quite known german R&B artist was visiting, too, she is participating in most of the vids. Amazing young girls, what can i say…
Check out the myspace and youtube links, most of it is in german and do NOT miss “achselhaar” and the “okra bindi show”!!!!!

For some reason i haven´t spent much time uptown, guess i´m more of a downtown girl.
Yesterday i went to Met with Yoyo, totally overwhelming i thought.
I think one would need about a month to go through all.Fantastic Museum,(forget about the Guggenheim)with a roof terrace overlooking central park.
After that i watched `Cosmic collisions`, narrated by Robert Redford at the Planetarium which is not quite as modern as the one in Hamburg. Impressive show though.
Tomorrow is my last day and i just got back from Pat, a very talented singer/songwriter/entertainer in Brooklyn. I shall upload pics of hers tomorrow , she deserves more space on my blog.
I think i´m gonna cry myself to sleep now.
