Hi there,

I’m Sabrina. Welcome to my blog palmtrees and sunshine.

Here I combine two of my greatest passions: traveling and a conscious lifestyle.

You’ll find tips about destinations and travel diaries as well as tips how to live a more conscious lifestyle without harming animals and our planet. I also talk about spirituality and the Law of Attraction. Dip into my free-spirited, unconventional and motivating space full of positivity.
Namasté.

What I really love about my university are the many projects we can take part in. Of course, we do have many theoretical classes but when we are motivated and involved enough, there are many interesting events to be a part of. 🎓 Today it took place the first sport journalist award in North Rhine-Westphalia. It’s an award for the best journalistic pieces in the categories text, audio and moving image, as well as eSport and sport business & sport politics. I wasn’t involved in organizing the evening but it was my job to accompany the event and to create an Instagram story for my university’s account @fhmkoeln. 📱💁🏻‍♀️ It was so cool to see how everything was prepared, starting with the final rehearsal tonight. We had a backstage room (with cool mirrors😄✨) to get fresh, a control room to check the sound and a foyer with champagne reception and of course our main hall where the actual award took place. I loved the feeling of not only being in the audience but having a job there and taking responsibility. Because of events like this I find out more about my strengths, my favorite fields of activity and in which jobs I see myself in the future. Social media, especially Instagram, is one of my favorite topics and I totally love the atmosphere of being in the middle if events. I know I’m not a presenter/host kind of person on stage but I do love documenting events and everything that comes along with it: seeing cameramen (and women) and sound men doing their job, the view out of the production room, the photo walls (which remind me of red carpets, haha 📸), the possibility to interview winners afterwards. Of course it’s sometimes stressful to capture all the important moments, to think of a caption and to follow the event but it’s so worth it. It’s so much and especially if can spend the evening with some good friends of mine. Now I’m going to bed, I’m really tired but happy and with a smile on my face. Thank you @fhmkoeln for this opportunity tonight. 📲🎤⚽️🤼‍♂️🏆

t r a v e l s t o r y / c o n s c i o u s n e s s 💫 The other day I walked through the streets of Cologne and I was thinking about the trip of me and my friend to Portugal. We had such an amazing week and with lots of memories. It was a week of relaxation, no appointments and no stress. Just living for the day, doing whatever felt right and letting our intuition guide us. Before the travel I had such a fuzzy mind and inner unrest. The town we stayed in was Olhão, a small fishing village. My mind calmed down and I began to feel inner peace - and I loved it. The people there were so relaxed and radiated peace. I definitely wanted to bring this attitude to Germany to be here in a relaxed mood, too. Just going with the flow of life, appreciate every moment and feeling inner peace. 🙏🏽✨ These were exactly the thoughts I had as I walked through the busy streets of Cologne. My holidays aren’t that long ago, so I have this relaxed-Portugal-spirit still inside of me. Suddenly I saw a sign at a furniture store that said “That’s how I want to live” and I immediately transferred it to my thoughts. How appropriate was this?! I guess this was really a sign and it reminded me of keeping this relaxing spirit also here in Germany. 😊

Only a few days are left until Pisces season is over. What have you learned during the last weeks? ♓️✨ Are there any realizations you made? If you want, you can share them in the comments below so others will learn from you as well. As it’s said in the picture above, intuition is a super power. When you always listen your heart, you can’t do anything wrong. Listening to your inner voice, will lead you to your truth. Life is a journey and you’re the writer of your story. You determine in which direction you want to go. Remember that anything is possible. Every dream you have can be turned into reality. No matter how big they are. The bigger, the better. So dream big, have goals and enjoy every moment. ✨🦋 If something feels right, do it. Sometimes it might be courageous to listen to your inner voice. But it’s so worth it. Do what makes you happy. And do a lot of it. Don’t care what other people think of you. If they judge, it’s only a perception of their beliefs. Stand up for what you believe in and create the life of your dreams. You have the power to do so. 💪🏽

a s t r o l o g y t a l k 🌙 I’m not an expert on astrology but I know that Mercury is currently in retrograde. This means that it looks like as if the planet moves backwards in the sky. However, it’s just an optical illusion. It’s like when a car passes another car with more speed, it looks like as if the slower car is drives backwards for a moment although it’s moving forward. ☄️🌍 Mercury rules over communication including all of our technology and information systems. In this retrograde it can happen that technological devices don’t work, server break down or delays occur. Mercury retrograde started on March 5ththis year and I kinda forgot about it. I’m a positive person and I honestly don’t expect bad things to happen because I might attract them this way. So I didn’t think of technological problems at all but this day has been pretty intense and I really blame #MercuryRetrograde for it. 📱☎️🚊 So here’s what happened: this morning our lecturer was late due to a train delay and we had to start our university class later. Then, our internet connection didn’t work well and on top we had some problems with Excel. In the afternoon I tried to upload some Instagram stories on our travel account @the_travelling_sabrinas and it didn’t work out either. Now I’m trying to send a massage via WhatsApp and it can’t be sent. And moreover: I can’t comment on Instagram photos… I hope that this post is uploading properly… 🤞🏽🙏🏽✨ Have you made any experiences like this so far? 🙈

A relaxing holiday is exactly what I needed right now. A couple of days ago my mind was fuzzy and full of to-dos. Here at the Algarve, I can relax. 🇵🇹🌊☀️ No rushing, just going with the flow. I feel that my mind calms down and my heart relaxes. I feel inner peace. And it feels so good. Maybe it’s the influence of the Portuguese people because here, everybody is taking it slow. We staying in Olhão, a pretty quiet town. No freeways, little traffic, only barking dogs and every now and then. People starting their day by sitting in one of those small cafés, having a coffee, reading the newspaper. They talk with their neighbors, go grocery shopping and they walk and do things slowly. And they’re so nice! Its unbelievable. Sometimes I think time has stopped here. Trains run every two hours and busses are often delayed. But people aren’t bothered. They just accept it. I think that’s one of the keys of live. Accept and don’t change what you can’t control. My ‘problems’ seem so insignificant here. Life is too beautiful to be annoyed by little things. For example: Why thinking about writing my bachelor’s thesis in a few months when I can just enjoy this beautiful sunset? 🌅 Life is happening now. Only now. And I’m on the right track. Always. I’m taken care of. So are you. We just have to listen to our intuition and follow our heart. That’s it. Then we’re always right. ♥️ Right now I’m laying under the stars of Olhão. I’m going to meditate soon and putting my phone away. So, boa noite a todos. ✨

What are you grateful for today? 💫 . I bet there are a lot of things. Just be aware and conscious of all the beautiful things that are happening for you. Right now I’m on vacation at the Algarve. 🇵🇹 Although it’s not always sunny here and sometimes rainy, we make the best out of it. 🌦 Today we made a trip to Albufeira which contained a looot of changes because we came by bus and train. But we arrived and that’s all that matters. 😄💪🏽 We walked a long way to a vegan café, arrived and found out it was closed. The second we thought about going back to the station, the café owner opened the door because she was in a back room and heard voices 😊🗣 She opened and we ordered. We had a vegan coffee and some really delicious cakes. 🍰 We had such a great talk with the owner about veganism, food, Instagram and local tips. She said she felt ill that morning and then drank some tea with spices, listened to relaxing music and meditated. This way she treated her cold and stuffed nose. She said most diseases start in the mind. So true! Love these kind of people 😍💫🧘🏻‍♀️🌿 So today I’m really grateful for connecting with locals. Also I’m thankful for: 🌷 seeing beautiful flowers 🌧 walking through the ‘summer’ rain and smelling wet asphalt 🌊 watching waves at the beach (and falling down while running away from the waves and laughing afterwards) 🥑🍜 buying Asian food and cooking it 😂 laughing with @sabrinabcks about funny café reviews ☕️🌮🍣 . . What are you grateful for? 🤗
