Berlin in summer

Germany:England 4:1 - after party at Waldbuehne, Berliner Philharmonie

After celbrating Jan-Oliver's and Laura's wedding in Hildesheim, we made it
just in time the the spreearche in Koepenick to watch Germany dominate the
islanders...

Fully excited we discovered, that you need about 1h drive on the highway,
to get from one side of Berlin to the other..

Now we will enjoy the Berliner Philharmonie at the open air venue Waldbuehe
(Forest stage..)

What a day...

Barcelona - last days

The countdown started... now being in France snowboarding the last week of the season in Val Thorens, Barcelona seems already far away. However, we will return for good. One last week! Graduation is close, and many visitors will come...

IESE will be a madness... and then -

blank -

over -

finit...

this thing was meant to be 2 years and it turned out to be a very short period of time, an intensive everlasting ongoing experience... the source of engagements and the power to return to or start what you really want to do...

ole...

we will enjoy our last days at the beach, at the little cafes and our newly discovered bakeries and ice cream places... barcelona was great, is great and will be there when we return...

this is my first good buy, a mini farewell, despite the fact that we are not really gone yet...

machs gut, knuddels, barcelona

Barcelona - 2 years CSR Scoo 125 good bye

I had to let go... a long time friend, reliable warrior in the streets of barcelona... our beloved ride, the little CSR Scoo is sold. Gone for good, in new good hands.. but still. I dedicate this very post to say thank you, to our ride, for providing us with the freedom of doing many things... for not being stolen or broken.. for staying out of trouble like accidents or police controls...

true, sometimes she was a little winy, as in noise or annoyingly loud... but electric alarm comes with benefits and disadvantages like everything, e.g. vegetarians.

Anyway... times over, days are counted and while we have still 2 weeks to go.. from now on we actually have to walk! ,m

Barcelona - IESE Spring Games 2010

happy fans and participants
our boss Niki!!
part of the handball team celebrating another gold medal!!Andreas celebrating 3 medals..
Beach Volleyball team!
Charly dominated rugby...
The ???
Michael hurt! cant play;( skiing injury
Nick as usual...
Our 3 DJanes...
and the sunshine kids...

IESE Spring Games 2010... what can I say.. spontaneously of my mind I would say

1) vulcanic ash. The reason most of the INSEAD guys couldnt come and even worse the reason my me very only Kati and biggest handball club fan ever could make it on Saturday (15h car drive from Munich in a Mercedes S.class)

2) Free beer, good music, nice DJs, good weather, perfect atmosphere and setting. The day was great and the facilities once more uniquely perfect. Too bad that we had only few participants...

3) Handball MBA team among MBAs unbeaten!

4) First years dominated the second years in basketball and soccer!

5) last but not least, outstanding job by Niki and Ines especially in the last chaotic days. Special thanks to Goyo for getting the beer and then keeping it cold... and great applause to all the orga team for doing this!

we put the bar high for the firsties...

Barcelona - Bachelors' night

Brad, Naresh, me, Lenny, George, Andreas - at least i got pink!!

A night I can't remember . or a night to remember, same thing... 6 bachelors gone wild in Barcelona... brilliantly put into play by davide, felix, martin and many others... going after drinks and kisses in a competitive way isnt healthy for MBAs...
Well, there wasa lot of kissing involved as the fotos show not only good looking girls ;((( however, we all survived the night (most of us barely, but hey..)
So this was the first step toward getting married with Kati, and many more to come till the wedding..
I am so excited!!
<3

Barcelona - Easter Food

Brunch at a place I dont remeber the name, its a little plaza on Cardener

Cooking something up for a change...after eating out 5 days in a row...
breakfast at another plaza (George Orwell):

btw Eric Arthur Blair (25 June 1903 – 21 January 1950),^[3] better known by his pen name George Orwell, was an English novelist and journalist. His work is marked by keen intelligence and wit, a profound awareness of social injustice, an intense, revolutionary opposition tototalitarianism, a passion for clarity in language and a belief in democratic socialism.^{[4] (Wikipedia)}

Fish, btw

A fish is any aquatic vertebrate animal that is covered with scales, and equipped with two sets of paired fins and several unpaired fins. Most fish are ectothermic (or cold-blooded). Fish are abundant in most bodies of water. Fish can be found in high mountain streams (e.g., char andgudgeon) and in the deepest ocean depths (e.g., gulpers and anglerfish). According to FishBase, 31,500 species of fishes had been described by January 2010.^{[1] Wikipedia}
