26.08.11 ~ Me Gusta La Musica festival in Moritzhof, Madgeburg. The trip went like this: Car share into town > afternoon tea with local family > festival with lovely people and salsa band > me: outdoors on a balmy summer’s evening > awesome German grill supper > stay with a bunch of gorgeous locals who lived in different apartments in the same building (like ‘Friends’ but in Germany) > massive breakfast spread put on by said kids > car share back to Berlin. My life could SO be about all this food / people / music cycle…
