Summer Things

Altough the weather has been kinda weird lately in Munich and we´ve gone from hailing to sunshine in about 5 minutes, I still have hope for this summer. Especially after getting a taste with toasty 30 degree heat in LA. So here are my favourite things I can not WAIT for this (and basically every) summer:

• actual SUN (as I said: it´s been nothing but crazy weather changes here recently)
• having to eat ice cream super fast so it doesn´t melt
• the first time you naturally wake up from the brightness of the sun outside instead of your alarm clock
• getting to wear cute dresses/playsuits
• generally more fun with fashion seen as in Germany, winter clothes are all about not freezing to death and not so much about style
• open air cinema on warm evenings
• driving around with open windows
• getting a tan and those natural highlights in your hair
• the smell of sunscreen and salt
• days at the lake with my girls, where all the serious life stuff seems endlessly far away
• drinking cocktails at 3pm
• going to the beer garden with my family
• sitting outside late at night and talking about anything and everything
• beautiful sunsets
• BBQs
• all those „summer hits“ that you hate at first but then kinda give in to and start singing along to everytime they´re on the radio (which is a lot)
• yummy fruits to eat!!!
• Going on holiday (obviously, duh!)
• Long, soul-cleansing bike ridesand walks
