A SPECIAL TOUR in the CITY

The last week was filled with so many things to do and see. Just trying to catch some of the things

was bit overwhelming. But when the weather has been so fantastic we can't resist.

I have always had a interest in designs , art and architecture, so last week was the chance to tour some of the very interesting buildings , open house idea. One such place that was open to see was the Hunderwasser Haus. A most unusual and unique designed building. The man behind the idea

was an artist, he also had a great interest in design of buildings. His idea was definitely different.

Homes that were colourful, filled with earth and nature, trees in rooms . It actually reminds me of the one place in Argentina with the similar colourful exterior and lopsided views.

The Hunderwasser house has apartments, offices and outdoor terraces . It is one of the most visited buildings in Vienna. It is not classical , but a modern abstract structure the makes you want to stop and take pictures or even make a painting of it.

A definite place to check out .

I wonder how it is to live in such a place?

Would be interesting to talk to a resident of the place.

Would you like to live in such

a colourful abode?

SOMETHING DIFFERENT I have to say I love color and prints, and when I saw the work of this Kenyan photographer Thandiwe Murui , I was in AWE. Such vibrant prints that make a statement . The prints or the checkerboard are definitely eye- catching. ( I happen to have a checkerboard top that I wear as a coverup) This might not be for everyones taste, but sometimes it is fun to be a bit wilder! THE SWIRLS love this print and the colour combination . Vibrant and fun! A MOD- FLORAL this print that looks like a Sunflower is perfect for summer. JUST BLENDING IN CHECKERBOARD ANYONE? find out more about her work here Thandiwe via BBC images via Thandiwe Murui

INSTAGRAM REAL STARS?

WONDER IF SHE IS REAL? How many people follow their favourite instagram and feel perhaps this is what a real person looks like and maybe lives like. I am not talking celebrities like Rihanna or Kardashians or any of the other major celebrities . I am not a big follower of instagram, but for those that are there are a few surprises such as one very popular Instagram Star is actually a virtual reality image, not a REAL person. These computer generated images look so real that people are actually thinking it is a real person. Something strange about that , if someone is able to fool people in such a way Firstly it is not stated this is not a real person This to me is funny. with all the talk about fake news etc. So why is it allowed to have computer generated images allowed to be part of? Okay maybe its like following a cartoon hero, i.e. SUPERMAN or WONDERWOMAN - but this we know are only characters not REAL PEOPLE. These so called stars gorgeous , flawless and h
