majakowski.gasthaus | berlin

with my summertime schedule and 'new to berlin' status, i've been doing a lot of research about my new surroundings.

Heavenly

It's so sunny here in Heidelberg today. Spring is so close, I can taste it. I went for a long hike yesterday in the rain and could start to smell the first buds of trees and flowers sprouting out. 

I have no idea what kind of tree this is, but it smells heavenly.
