Lost in Creation

Dear creative minds, this post is dedicated to you! I have spotted this fabulous abandoned theatre in Alcúdia randomly when I was driving by and just saw its awesome graffitis from the outside when I thought 'Hey, that must be a fantastic photo shoot location', thus I decided to go back and check it out. And hell yea, I did find some incredible graffitis! When entering the huge building I first felt a little unsafe facing the enormous ruins and abandoned stage (you never knew if your next step might be last one), which only increased my admiration for this place! Once a wonderfully elegant theatre where concerts and famous shows took place, the building now turned into a street artist's paradise!
You all know I'm a huge art fan - architecture, street art, museums, exhibitions, paintings, sculptures, graffitis... anything extraordinary, unusual in poppin' colors will magically draw my attention! 
So here is the outcome of an extremely fun, creative and adrenaline-loaded shoot - lost in amazement, lost in creation... welcome to Es Foguero Palace!

I've got the Dreamer's Disease

Happy Monday, my lovely readers! I hope you all enjoyed your weekend to the fullest and had a great start of the week!
I'm pretty excited today cause I just started packing... nooo, I'm not heading home yet to Germany... I'll spend the next three days in Barcelona! I've never been to this amazing city but many people have told me to go so I couldn't resist checking it out while I'm in Spain. I've been running around the house all day - posting, tanning, packing, haha! We're leaving at 4am tomorrow morning so it's gonna be a short night for us.
I don't think I'll be able to post much this week since it will be my last one on Mallorca... for now. Gotta admit I haven't really blogged regularly during my vacation, but I'm sure you understand, I got better things to do than sitting in the house with my laptop, haha! I promise, I'll take more time to post once I'm back in Germany. For now, enjoy these pics of the wonderful beach shooting I did with my sister a few days ago!
By the way, I'm posting on Instagram on a daily basis, so if you wanna know what I'm always up to, feel free to follow me there (@laurahlp)!
Have a marvelous Monday!

Meeting the Blogger Heels

A wonderful good morning from the sunshine island! Hope you all had a great start of the week! My weekend was surely fantastic including lots of ice cream, relaxing, sunshine and a little fiesta ;-)
It's my 28th day on Mallorca today and I still got two more weeks to go before heading back to Germany, woohoo! So as long as I'm not sitting in class back at university studying hard, you will get to see many more photos of my marvelous escape to Spain!
Let's kick off the week with some shots of the meeting with one of my favorite bloggers who became a very good friend of mine - meet Encarna of The Blogger Heels! 
I have met Encarna for the first time in August last year and we had such a great connection right away. We have always stayed in contact since then and met up everytime I could make it to Mallorca (check out the post of our last meeting by clicking here). This time I went to visit her with my sister in Palma, Mallorca's capital, where Encarna took us to a lovely restaurant slash café called Can Joan de S'Aigo. It's an old-fashioned but very romantic place that made me feel like I was sitting in a cute Parisian café, loved it! After chatting over a Latte Macchiato for a while we decided to take some shots, of our meeting and the wonderful city. We had such a fabulous time and I'm always looking forward to seeing this girl whenever I escape to Mallorca ;-) So this is the outcome of our photo session, enjoy!

The Beauty of Valldemossa

Hello there, hope your February wasn't too bad after all, as you can see I was lucky enough to get the chance to escape to Mallorca once again. My third vaca week started and I got three more to go, woohoo! Today's post is about a very special place, a city of such romance and nostalgia - welcome to Valldemossa!
Valldemossa is a beautiful town located right in the middle of the mountains of Mallorca's Serra de Tramuntana. Surrounded by incredible nature this peaceful spot offers magnificent views, cute houses, jungle-like streets and most of all...recreation. After two years in New York City I was simply overwhelmed by the calmness of this city, especially around this time of the year Mallorca is amazingly relaxing, an abandoned island - no tourists, no party animals, no traffic... just nature, sunshine and Mallorquin citizens. Many friends have told me about Valldemossa thus I couldn't resist checking it out. And let me tell you, I was definitely not disappointed! Dear readers, whenever you get the chance to visit Mallorca, make sure to explore this mountain village. You can't only find romantic neighborhoods, untouched nature and charming cafés here, you might as well visit the adorable house of the famous componist Chopin which has now been transformed into a museum.
Flowers, mountains and joyful colors as far as the eye can see - Bienvenido a Valldemossa!
