Yes! This! I needed to hear this, even though in hindsight I might see some signs, but they sure weren't obvious enough for me to develop an identity on them.

hey shout out of recognition and validation to all the queer people who didn’t exhibit many queer behaviors or have queer many experiences when they were young!! shout out to trans women and trans men who didn’t feel bad about or uncomfortable with their AGAB when they were younger and didn’t gravitate toward the “opposite side of things”. shout out to nonbinary and genderfluid ppl who felt content with their AGAB all of their childhood or even teen and adults years. shout out to lesbians who didn’t have any crushes on girls growing up and liked traditionally feminine things and shout out to gay men who didn’t have any crushes on boys growing up and liked traditionally masculine things. shout out to bi and pan and omni people who only had hetero attractions growing up. shout out to aros and aces who thought they experienced crushes or attraction or whatever while growing up and didn’t feel excluded by being surrounded by allo people. shout out to literally any queer people who didn’t “show the signs” growing up because that can make you feel invalidated or worried that you’re faking it and you shouldn’t feel worried about that! When we say that everyone’s journey and experience is different, that includes you!! Happy pride month <3

Vintage motorized coach called

"Ecarus"

I've seen it drive around the city a couple times. I was fascinated, but never knew, what it's about. (Not that I do now, I think it's either an exhibition piece, like here at Straßenland, or a tourist shuttle to do city tours) but it looks spectacular!

Finally found fresh mint for my lemonade 🍋🌱

Local Bicycle repair club. This is so inspiring to me! I wanted to join something like this for a while and could not really find one, so I think I'll definately check this one out!

Most spectacular, delicious, refreshing summer dish 👌

Modern motorized e-bikes at Straßenland (road country) Festival. Proud of their ancestry...

Looks like you can pimp your precious one person limousine with a ton of features.

Love how the first model has a bottle of wine strapped to the frame! 🍷

(The company seems to be called rayvolt)

Vintage motorized bike at the

Straßenland

street festival in Cologne last weekend celebrating sustainble mobility solutions.

Lots of e-bikes, some e-cars, as well as different styles of cargo bikes and these new electric scooters. Many also had the concept of sharing, renting or leasing vehicles.

Strawberry mini waffles made with our

travel size waffle iron

We got it for christmas and already used it on our way home from the holidays when we stopped by some friends for new years eve. So it earned it's name 😄

I try to make the most of this strawberry season, because I miss them so much during the rest of the year, when I can't bear to buy those that have been shipped around the globe or grown in a lab.

Caution!

Enter atelier on your own risk. Pictures could evoke thoughts and feelings and change your life.

Atelier visiting experience with one of our art classes from University. Crazy old rocker of a professor showed us his workplace and told us how he goes about realizing his projects. He is absolutely punk and I love it!

🎨I want this some day!

illusion street art

at Troisdorf Trainstation, discovery on my way to new adventures. Sometimes it's so refreshing for the mind to go out of my usual local bubble...

Funky workshop in my neighbourhood has this rusty fire sign. I love how it looks in the evening sun. It's called "die Projekterei" -

The Projectery

Got no idea what they actually do, they're very mysterious. But they seem to be a jolly bunch and I dream to be part of something like this one day...

I get this view when I return from grocery shopping, as my silly student self can't manage to go any other time than shortly before the store closes...
