Five Things. 1600 pandas, earth from space and donkey day.

Hallo meine Lieben,

I hope you are all enjoying your weekend. Please check out my friend Celeste's Five Things as well. 

1. Here you can see 1600 pandas. Artist Paulo Grangeo worked together with the WWF and created these papier-mâché pandas to raise awareness....can you believe that there are only 1600 pandas left in the wild? Find our more here.


2. You can watch the earth from space here. Pretty fascinating. Unless it is dark. 

3. On Thursday was World Donkey Day. Donkeys are such fantastic animals but unfortunately they often get treated like second-class beings and get exploited and abused. Find out more here


4. Another book shelf obsession of mine. I really am in desperate need of my own library. 


5. If you need a good laugh, you should listen to the animal song.


Happy Sunday & Mother's Day!

    1. Yeah, it is really horrible. 1600 pandas in the wild. That is not much and makes me really sad.

      I really love the idea to store your books like that. I am always happy about new inspiration.

  7. That panda fact makes me so sad!! They are so adorable. Same with donkeys--it's sad how people treat them so poorly--just like cows, and yet look how smart and friendly they are!!!

    1. It is really saddening that there are only 1600 pandas left in the wild. Shame on humanity. And the way they treat other species is just ridiculous. Animals are not our slaves but most people think so.

  8. Awww the pandas! I have no idea why donkeys are treated so badly...its just very strange the way people rate animals.

    1. I really have no idea why people treat animals like that. I am sure they think the animals are their slaves and they are the master. So stupid.
