Trips with my boyfriend Virtual Riot : Toykio café, Miramar Crystal Pool, Music Store, Bootshaus ♥

Hi there (^-^)v
Today I'm gonna write a more personal entry again about my
recent life and adventures with my love Valentin aka Virtual Riot ♥

As some of you might know my boyfriend is a musician & producer
and studies at the Popakademie in Mannheim.
See more about the Popakademie in this entry of mine.
Now I'm gonna write about some exciting things we did the last
few months ♪ﾀﾞｰﾘﾝ♪ヽ( 〃￣ω￣)人(￣ω￣〃 )ﾉ♪ﾊﾆｰ♪ 

We went to the Music Store in Cologne as he wanted to get
some new things like a field recorder and speakers. I love to
look around in such stores, there is so much to see and
the Music Store is huge ! There even is a café in it ♥
We went there with some friends of ours. After we finished shopping
we had to wait for our items to be ready to take home.
Valentin was playing some songs while we were waiting  : 

Music store:

 It's huge *-* You can really spent the day there.

I even found a pink guitar ! ♥

~♥~

On the 28th May Valentin was performing at the
Bootshaus club in cologne again !
I absolutely love this club and it's by far my favourite one.
The people there are awesome, everyone is really nice and relaxed.
We always have a great time there ♫ ヾ(〃^∇^)ﾉ~♪

I spent the night with my friend Monika  ♥

you can see Valentin in the background ~ hihi :D

♪ Virtual Riot :

The Event :

 My outfit for the night : 

I don't even know what kind of fashion I could call it ? Any ideas ?
But I must admit I'm also quite content if you can't even lable things
anymore, this means you're getting further in developing your own
ways of fashion, ね ? ♥
I'm currently inspired by Pastel Goth (accessories)
and sweet Liz Lisa Hime Gyaru looks.

After Valentin's performance at the Boothaus we went
to the Dorint hotel :

ＣＨＵ〜☆ﾁｭｩ〜(●−з)(ε−●)ﾁｭｩ〜☆ 

We were so super tired I can't describe it. It was like
5 o'clock in the morning. So we were really happy to be in such
a comfortable hotel *-* The bed was so fluffy. I love hotel bedding !
Of course we had our little elephant we call "Fant" with us ♥
It's Mouton by Sentimental Circus.
Living the Fant-Life ♥

The Dorint hotel was really fancy and luckily we also had breakfast there.
It was really delicious *^*  They had everything !
Scrambled eggs, and a huge variety of fruits ,
 warm waffles with melted chocolate sauce,
the normal breakfast things like bread and buns and much more.
I ate so many strawberries =D ♥
They even had a live-cooking station. We were so full after it.
Huuuh morning food-coma, not good :D
Most times I kinda have to force Valentin to attend the
hotel breakfasts after his performances.
 I know he/we only had little sleep but it's free for us after all.
I think you should take what you're offered  ;D
And nutrition is really important for you after such an exhausting event.
You can always go back to sleep afterwards again ^.^
Nya ~♪ I really like side parted bangs at the moment :

Another trip I wanted to share with you guys for quite a long time now
is the one to the Miramar Crystal swimming pool ! ♥
I went there for Valentine's Day with Valentin this year.
We're planning on going there again soon as he's living only
30 minutes by train away from it !
Me sitting in the hot Amethyst pool ♪

The Miramar is in Weinheim, near Heidelberg in Germany.
It's one of the greatest indoor pools in Europe.
As I've been there a few times with my boyfriend I already wrote
a huge blog entry about it with lots of information and pictures for you.
click here for the Miramar info & pictures entry.
♥ My boyfriend :

They also have lots of great water slides, even one with a full looping !
As it's so popular it's sometimes also quite crowded.
But you can do something against this problem :
We always go there in the morning and arrive when it just opens,
then there is almost no one !
We were all alone in some of the pools for quite a long time.
In the evenings when it's getting dark it's always extremely full.
Then you can only cling on to your loved one and search for a
romantic, small place ;D Most people do that by the time it's getting dark.
If you're annoyed by other couples I suggest you never go there in
the evenings. But we really liked the atmosphere ~
Love is in the air ;3 ♥
We also lay in the outdoor pools gazing at the stars and looking at the
coloured lights of the crystal lamps in the pool.
One time it even began to rain softly, it was a great feeling laying in the pool.
The outdoor saltwater spa during the day:

The crystal lights up in lots of colours at night and the pool is really hot.
And these were some smaller pools all empty in the morning ♥ :

The big crystals are Amethysts ~♥

There also was a big pool to have some fun in.
Each half an hour there were waves and at night there were some
lazer shows with music in this pool :

So if you ever happen to be near Heidelberg or are planning holidays in Germany I really advise you to go there !
It's awesome and like small holidays ♥ You can have lots of fun, it's
great for children, extremely clean, they have a good restaurant, a
cocktail bar with ice and lots of space to relax in silence ♥
One time we even sleept there for 3 hours as we were
spending 12 hours there :D  The best is to explore everything in 2 days.
If you want you can also enter a huge Sauna area but we didn't
buy a ticket for that. I enjoy swimming most.
And the best thing it's not very expensive, each of us paid
20 € for the whole day. And the bath is really luxurious ♥
I always feel like I'm entering another world when I go there.
It's really vivifying for my spirit. 【〜〜〜(￣∇￣*)〜〜〜】☆ﾟ

Now I'll show you some snapshots I took while
going on some trips with Valentin ♥
This is his fluffy cat Luna :

Nowadays we can only see her when we visit Valentin's family. 
I really enjoy spending time with them ♥ 
They're really kind and sweet and it's always fun with them.
~♪~
Most of the time Valentin visits me in Düsseldorf as I like it more 
than Mannheim and he preferes my appartment as
it's a little bigger than his and really cozy.
Moreover there are so many great things and restaurants in Düsseldorf.
And all the Japanese stores we like ♥ But of course I also enjoy
the time we spend in Mannheim. After all there are all his instruments
and he can play some things for me on his piano and show me
new projects he's woring on. Furthermore Valentin is living
only 1 minute away from a great Vegan restaurant.
We always go there when I visit him, it's called Kombüse.
It's absolutely tasty !
Ichigo Bubble Tea  at BoBoQ in Düsseldorf :

いちごが大好きです。~♥
At the Eiscafé Tiamo Düsseldorf, it's the one right next to the
main station, inside the cinema :

At the café Toykio that also sells Pop-art :

~♥~

I love Gloomy bear ! ♥

~♥~

 ~♥~

Gallery/shop in the basement :

 ~♥~

My Tamagotchi Piece ♥

"Nekochi : Onaka suita na~ "  I'm hungry ♪

Let's go on with some food snapshots I took the last
few months when I was eating out with Valentin ♥

Once he got a heart waffle to cheer me up again :

Vegetarian sushi ♥

Noodles & vegetables :

And we really eat Pizza too often ... =D
but can you eat Pizza too often ?!

The moment we discovered pizza.de changed my life xD hehe
It made me memorize my new postal code, oh gosh...
I should never go on there again :O
Maybe only a few times more...

One time when we visited Valentin's family we went for a walk
in nature. We saw a really great scenery :

We even stumbled across some horses who let us pet them ^^

We also met a cute snail on our way ♥

~♥~

Neko's music :

♥ Perfume - Fake it ♥

Like "I love you the most in the world"

Like "I don't need anything but you"

Like "You're the reason I'm alive"

♥

世界で一番好きだ的な

あなたしかいらないのよ的な

あなたのために生きるわ的な

These are feelings that do come directly from my heart when
thinking of him ~ the rest of the lyrics don't apply to me though ;)
I changed the meaning for myself. I think generally this is a really sad song
but to me it's a happy one and always cheers me up ♥

This song of Perfume was even used for a mix by one of my
favourite musicians : Unicorn Kid ♥

That's it for today ! I know it was a lot so

I hope you enjoyed reading and could take some
helpful information for you from this entry.
Let me know how you liked it ! ♥
See you next time (^-^)v nyan ♪

Huge Crystal indoor pool Miramar & happy winter time with my boyfriend ♥

Hi there (^-^)v

The last few weeks I have been very busy with my
Japanese studies etc. again. There's just so much work.
Therefore I was super happy when the weekends finally arrived.
I use to spend the weekends with my boyfriend and at the start
of december we went to the one of the
most awesome indoor swimming pools in Germany !

It's called : Miramar - Crystal thermal bath
They have crystals everywhere in their building
and some of the thermal baths are made of crystals !

These are some recent snapshots I took of me when I
was with my boyfriend Valentin ~♥

So let me show you lots of photos of the
greatest indoor swimming pool in Germany !

It is near Mannheim where my boyfriend currently lives to study
music production. I wrote about it in this former post.
I absolutely love swimming therefore my boyfriend and I use to
go swimming a lot, also on anniversaries and such ♥
I really wanted to go to the Miramar because they have these pretty
Amethyst thermal bath and a Rose Quarts bath :

 Their huge main pool is a wave pool ! *o*
And as we went there in the evening and stayed until 23 o'clock
we also saw their lazer show + music when we were in that pool !

I enjoyed the time I had there with Valentin a lot ♥
It felt like short holidays and was really restorative and wholesome for me.
I had a quite hard week before we went swimming, so this
was a huge relief for me ~♪
We spend the most time relaxing in the pink rose quartz pool :

 

Of course that was my favourite spot ^o^
There was even a pink relaxing light.
This is how heaven should be like in my eyes.On the next picture you can see how beautiful the light was reflecting. Everything was just so sparkly.
My love Valentin ♥ :

~♥~

The Amethyst bath *_______*

The most beautiful place I have ever been ~♥

I really liked it how the water was constantly flowing over

the smooth, warm edges of the 2 pools.

An Amethyst that was standing near a massage pool :

My beloved rose quartz pool again :

One time Valentin had to hold me tight because
I almost fell into the pool with my new iPhone =D
I know usually it's not the best idea to take photos in a pool but it
was just so amazingly stunning there ♥ I wanted to keep that memory.

And we had lots of time as the pool was open until midnight !

There also were some turning, massive rose quartz balls :

I found my Sparkling Neko world ~♥
This is the natural habitat of a happy, relaxed Neko :

~♥~

★'.･.LOVE~(^▽^(^▽^*)~LOVE.･.･:☆ 

All those lights *-*

Also gave me a great Christmas feeling already.

Pink water ~♥

This was the way to the hot outdoor thermal bath :

The relaxing zone with halite salt crystals :

Halite Salt crystal lamps in the hallway :

This is the big map of the Miramar indoor pool :

My favourite spot were the Salt & Crystal thermal baths ♥

There are also some of the most adventurous water slides in Germany :

They have a hurricaine loop slide with a looping !
There you fall down 10 meters in almost free fall.
It's unique in Germany. Sadly I was to afraid to ride it.

When we were there it was already dark and there was no light in the slide.

Normally I love such things as I'm a total adrenalinjunkie but

these slides we're really extreme. And in the dark you could not see

anything at all. That was a little too much for me.
I went on all the slides except for the hurricaine loop.

But I hope I have the bravery to ride that slide next time.

This is an onride video of the hurricaine loop :

~♪~

I went on the slide called "Race" which was really fun ♪
Here is an onride video :

And my favourite slide "Splash" which is a funnel slide ♥
like they often have in Japan.
Here is an onride video :
This is the outdoor crystal pool :

When we were there it was already dark like I said and
the Crystal was glowing red, blue and green ♥

There was also another nice outdoor pool with a swirl :

~♪~

So if you are ever near Mannheim (Germany) you have
to check out this lovely indoor pool ! ♥
You can really spend the whole day in there.
There is more than enough pretty space to relax and eat.
It is also the cleanest public bath I've ever been too, normally
I'm really fussy considering the floors of public baths -  ugh ! >.<
I just can't walk there barefoot. But in the miramar it was
perfectly fine and super pretty and clean.

Early december I also went Christmas shopping with my Boyfriend ♥

We went to the mall in Düsseldorf and in front of it 

there was also a small Christmas market :

Gingerbread heart : Princess ♥ お姫様

Sweets ~♪

~♥~

A pink advent wreath *-*

We went shopping the whole day and it was really tiresome
so we decided to relax afterwards inside a cute
café inside the Arcaden in Düsseldorf.
They have a small alcove with a cushion and pillows in it.
It's like a sofa ♥ My friend Bea showed me this great spot
some time ago *-*

We had a Muffin and some caramel cappuccino ♪

The whole mall was decorated quite lovely due to Christmas.
I like it when there are lots of white sparkly lights.

So this were my past weeks.
I hope you had a lovely time as well ! ♥
Even if you face hard and stressful times,
just keep in mind that there will also be relaxing 
times again as well. Reward yourself from time to time !
Now I still have to do quite a lot of things before I finally get
short Christmas holidays from University.
Gosh I can't wait for Christmas *-* ♥
I'm super excited about it !
I really wish everyone a fabulous time ~ lots of love to you and
may all your wishes come true !

Neko's music : 

• Ikkitousen Dragon Destiny soundtrack Musume e.
by Kikuko Inoue

I know this song since such a long time and I love to
listen to it to relax. There is no song that makes my
heart feel so at peace and happy ♥
I also own the video in which this song plays, if you
know what I'm referring to.
I think it's so beautiful *-*

Thank you for reading !
See you next time (^-^)v nyan ~♥
