New week and new challenges! I have started to study German at the University of Wien. It's a language course that hopefully will help me become better in writing, speaking and understanding German. Allready the first day we got a homework and the tempo is quote high I would say, but I like it. The teacher is a funny guy and it's cool that he lived in Brazil for 11 years. All the other students are very nice and there are some more scandinavian people, which is great. I'm motivated to learn how to speak Greman for real now! 👊

The Greman course starts everyday at 8.45 am in the morning. At first it was a bit hard to get up so early, since I have been standing up from bed around 8.00 am in the past weeks. But it was still new and exciting, so I could motivate myself to do it. The teacher he only speak German all the time, so after the leasson you are always so tired after all the concentration... It's also important for me to make my notes nice and strucktured, so of cause I also made the frontpage of my notebook more nice looking. I think it's so fun to write letters in different sizes and forms. Maybe a Bullet journal would be perfect for me actually... 😇🤔

After my leasson on Wednesday morning Stefan met me at the university and we went for some training at FITINN Rathausplatz. I have to say that it's such a big difference between the different gym's and I like the one close to my place so much more. It's less people and so much more space. But you can't know before you have tried, right? So we tried this new gym, but the conclution was that we both liked the other one better.

New leasson in the morning and I still like it. I think I feel better when I get up earlier in the morning actually. What I also like is that I have so much time after my leasson to work with the company and take time for myself, like do meditation and yoga. (I have been so bad at doing yoga lately tho... 🙄) Need to be better at that, because I feel so much better when I do it.

After the leasson in the morning it was weekend and I realised how much I've actually missed the Friday and weekend feeling. The past weeks I've not really had any routines, so it feels so nice to finally beeing able to look forward to the weekends and really be of then. So the rest of the afternoon I did not do so much other then watch series and talk to my sister on Facetime. I wrote the yoga blogpost with the pictures of Ulli in Bad Gastein. Still love them so much! So a chilled Friday evening on my own at home, since Stefan had nightshift at the ambulance in Wilhelmsburg.

Wow! This day was so amazing! 100% photography overload!? I was at my second workshop with Sophie Häusler, an Austrian Boho Wedding & Couple photographer based in Vienna. She is just so talented and I have followed her on Instagram for a while now. I think it´s so fun when people actually are as you think they are. Then you have really succeded with your social medias... I hope you guys have a nice picture about who I am as well. Would be fun to hear how you think I am as a person. Please do that in the comments! 😍 I will tell you guys more about the workshop in another entry with som BTS pictures. Keep your eyes open!

Rainy, windy and a tired Olivia, that makes the perfekt day for chilling in the sofa with a movie and good company. That was just what we did, Stefan, Lena and me. We watched all three Jurassic Park movies that afternoon. So nice and I could start to edit the pictures from the workshop at the same time. Just the Sunday I needed!

My tip of the week is about workshops. I think it's a perfect way to meet new people that are interested in the same thing as you are. For me it's about photography of cause and I've been at 4 photography workshops so far and I've enjoyed all of them so much. The first one was in Riksgränsen in Sweden with a photographer called Patrik Lindqvist. That was a workshop about photographing skiiers in action and then I totally fell in love with that and it has been a dream of mine ever since to work like that. Anyway the second one was a phototrip in 2015 to Californina in USA together with foto-resor.se. That was just soooooo cool and wow it was the best trip I've done so far. We made a roadtrip from L.A to Vegas, from Vegas to San Fran and back to L.A. This together with a crew of 15 girls, one cool guy and the course leaders. Two crazy fun weeks it was indeed! On to the last two who was here in Vienna! All the people I've met at these occations are people I've had contact with on and off threw the years until today. Some I still have contact with. That's just so cool! 😇🤙 Love to think about all amazing memories I will always have with me! So my tip is to go on workshops of all kinds
