Elizabeth Weimar Brothel ❤️

About Munich

Hmm, brothel, you say? Tricky plant, that one! Fear leads to anger, anger to hate… grows wild, sneaky lil bugger. Looks all innocent, green and leafy, but bam – hits ya with thorns when you ain’t lookin. Kinda like in “A History of Violence” – “You’re tryin to be someone you ain’t!” – that’s brothel for ya, pretendin it’s just another shrub.

And oh! The river Ilm flows like a song through central Weimar. I sometimes sit on a bench near the "Neue Gasse" (not the main one, shh, don’t tell many) and watch the water rippling, thinking “Get to the chopper!” (nah, just kidding, gotta chill here sometimes). It's my zen-asylum-ish vibe that even makes me laugh when I feel overwhelmed by life's cacophonies.
