Western Sun

Hello there,

so I am back in Houston and let me tell you that those 7 days of Au Pair Adventures' Western Sun Tour was freaking amazing.

Not only the guide was very funny and cool, but the girls I spent 8 days with were incredible! It felt like we've been friends for months or even years and I am so sad because I'll never know when I will have the chance to see them again! (And that we probably won't see our tour-guide Matty B. again!)

:(

Since I am not in the mood to write too much, here are some pictures for you guys! (Only a few!)

Day 1:

Day 2:

Yosemite Park

Days 3/4:

Day 5:

Day 6:

Lake Havasu

Day 7:

You'll see the rest of the pictures when you're visiting me in Germany :p

Lot's of love.

New Orleans Baby

Hey loves, 

so since I spent my weekend in New Orleans with 47 other Au Pairs I thought it's worth making another follow me around video which I am currently working on so hold on tight ladies and gentlemen. ;)
So after our 6 hours road trip from Houston to New Orleans, we arrived at 8 PM at our Hotel which was only 5 Minutes away from the Hotel were our Weekend-class was (awesome, right?). Friday was a really relaxing day, recovering from the exhausting car ride, but let me tell you that I've met some adorably sweet Au Pairs this weekend. 
Saturday was our sightseeing-tour and our guide (GOSH) she was such a creeper. She was so weird, even our teacher thought she's weird and our teacher was brilliant! She was so hilarious and cute, I loved her! So since our teacher didn't like her and because we didn't really had the chance to walk through New Orleans because our 8 hours tour was mostly just sitting in that damned bus, she managed to talk to the school, convincing them to give us 50$ back because the tour was shitty. (More money to be lavish AF) ;D

So yeah Sunday was nice even though it was just sitting in the class, but since our teacher was hilarious as f*ck (AF), I still enjoyed the day (maybe it's because we had writing as a subject and I LOVE IT!).

And that's it! 

Lot's of love.

Yours,

Houston-treasures with Jessica.

Hey there guys, 
so Jessica arrived in Houston yesterday and we spent some time bicycling/walking through Houston, visiting Discovery Green and Sam Houston Park, walking through underground tunnels, exploring some underground shopping areas with a cute souvenir shop.
Since the weather was incredible we had the chance to spent tons of times outdoors which was just lovely. We just took thousands of pictures and it really felt like we know each other for years, but actually we don't which was really fun! (Thank you Jessica for the great day!)

On our way home we bicycled along the bayou river and it was pretty impressive what we found there! Since I've never been there before it was also a new experience exploring Houston with new places which I am absolutely going to visit again! :)

After arriving back at home we decided to take a UBER taxi to get to the Water Wall in downtown Houston since it was too late to bike there and it would have been pretty exhausting bicycling there! And let me break this down for you: THE WATER WALL IS IMPRESSIVE! *o*

After our little watery adventure we just grabbed some dinner at the Galleria Mall and went back to my house, chilling out while getting ready for the next day because today was the day Jessica needed to catch her bus to Austin! :) 

And that's it! I hope you had an fantastic Tuesday and a great start into Wednesday! 

Ouh and let me tell you I've filmed A LOT so there is a new VLOG-Video coming up really soon.

Stay tuned!

Lot's of love. 

Yours, 

          Anica (the guide)

P.S.: Made some incredibly delicious (and good looking) pancakes this morning! ;)

spring fever.

Hey there love!

How are you? Hope you're fine. Well, I am because today is a lovely day: between 15-23 degree Celsius, sunshine, and a warm breeze surrounding me. (But tomorrow it's supposed to become worse again. NOOO!)

Well since I have a slip shift today (6-9 AM and then 6-12 PM), I thought I should go for a short run and I did, then I decided to walk to my favorite store: TARGET to buy some groceries and a lovely jumping rope (time to get into shape, Florida is only 1 month away!)

And since I am really into making videos right now, I started filming my neighborhood to show you guys what it looks like when I am leaving my home (I am currently editing it!). Moreover, there is going to be a new video up really soon because I thought you guys deserve a proper New York City video from the day I arrived here in the US. 

Additionally to this, I thought I might try to upload frequently - every other Sunday- (only if I am not working of course) and surprise you with some videos :) 

Here are two pictures of my walk to Target. ;)

(Wasn't in the mood to edit the pictures, sorry :$)

(So weird that this is standing in the front yard,

don't you think?)

Enjoy the lovely weather wherever you are!

Lot's of love.

Keeping you informed.

Hey there, 
so since the weather is not as good as I hoped it would be (it's cold and rainy) there is nothing much to say about my everyday life. Well, I guess I can tell you that I had a long weekend (I was also off on Monday) and that I've got hell of a lot split shifts this week, but I guess that's okay. (The only thing that's not okay is, is that I need to get up at 5:45 AM five times in a row -.-') I mean I would start later on Saturday, but we're leaving at 7:15 AM because our flight to Salt Lake City is around 9 AM. 
I'm excited because my host dad just told me that it's supposed to be incredibly beautiful where we are staying! *YEAH!*
I can't wait to see all the snow! I've missed it and I was kinda jealous that it was snowing in Germany when I wasn't there so I guess this is going to balance it out a bit!

Well, I guess that I'm going to upload again when I'm back in Houston and hopefully, I am going to show you some fantastic and mind-blowing pictures. (I PROMISE!!!)

Lot's of love.
See you soon!

Yours,

P.S.: I'm thinking about making my first YouTube-video for you guys. (HOW CRAZY IS THAT?) Yes, I know that I wanted to start making videos for you since the first day I've arrived in the U.S., but somehow I wasn't really in the mood and yeah don't know there were always some excuses (bla bla), BUT I realized that I am taking it pretty serious with my blog (compared to my other blog) and I guess I could work on some more projects. (Just because I love you and really want you to feel like you're here with me and there is no better implementation that doing some videos!)
