I used to live in a suburb financially comfortable throughout my whole childhood. As soon as I moved out from under my parents roof, I headed to something more “working class”. I’ve learned so much from these places. I’ve learned a lot about needs, how to get out of the bottom with nothing at all, and how to have self esteem while wearing worn out jeans for a job interview. 😉

This picture was by pure chance, it was late at night, totaly dark in a mountainous area (Bird´s mountains, right in the middle of Germany http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vogelsberg_Mountains),

A friend of mine who was driving came around the curve and I saw these reflective lines and traffic posts. Suddenly I shouted to my friend “Stop, I have to take a picture”.
We were on the road in the darkness for hours but until this moment when we went around the curve I have never seen this. There was a little bit more ambient light, but this is more like what I had envisioned in my mind when I shouted “Stop”.
