Happy Birthday to me today,
yes it is my birthdy today. I am turning 29. I have never believed people when they said the last year before turning 30 feels hectic and pressured because you still want/have to accomplish so much until a new decade starts and I have to admit, I am not scared but it kind of feels weird though. Like every birthday or every special ocassion we are having dinner at our favorite Italian restaurant, Tiziano in Regensburg. It is small and cozy and the food is beyond delicious.
So for this special ocassion today I am sharing 29 things I love, products I use, some personal stuff, favorite accessories and overall things to get to know me a little more (have a look at the last years birthday posts 27/28).
