New home, school, IKEA

School has started – that is why it seems that I have disappeared from the surface oft the earth: We had school from 5pm – 10 pm the whole week. No worries, it won’t be always like that; Its was the Bootcamp, an initial session to make acquaintance with everyone and work on a piece of illustration. The assignment was “Robot”, the technique free to choose. The results where all wonderful.
My piece is a new interpretation of the relationship between Godzilla and one of his opponents (I don’t know his name!). It’s supposed to be a cover for a fictive pulpy love-romance cover.

I also enjoy living in the same flat again I used to live in 2006. This time my room is much bigger, but also of course, much more expensive – I hope I will be able to afford it until the end. I live together with people from all over the world again: The nations are Sweden, Germany, Italy, Swiss, Canada and the US. I will introduce my roommates on some point. Below: My room. For those of you who do not know it already: it's 900 $/month. Lets see how long Im able to afford that.

Below are some of my roomates standing in our beautiful kitchen (which is nearly always clean, by the way - from left to right its Barry (US), Nick (US), Nava (Swiss), Katharina (GER)

We had a dinnerparty at the roof because some people are moving out.
On Sunday I took a trip the NY IKEA in Brooklyn to buy some little things. I mainly did this to take the free NYC water taxi. It was very stressful, of course, on Sunday million of people travel to IKEA, especially large families. But I got what I wanted: Mainly Tupperware!
The Watertaxi takes about 15 minutes from Wall Street pier 11 to Red Hook, Brooklyn, where IKEA has its location.
The view from IKEA restaurant to the statue of liberty. Its strange going shopping in the exactely same enviroment like in Austria, but seeing the skyline of NY in the background.
The water taxi leaves the pier.
