Germany has never been one of the places I've dreamed of going - but today, it seems so shiny and interesting all of a sudden. Hamburg in particular seems like such a culturally rich place to be!

For one, the characters of the book I've just finished live in Hamburg, Germany. I imagine it would be fun to run around the paths they did before deciding to embark on their greatest adventure yet.
For another, it is the birth place of one of my most favorite foods in the world: The hamburger! My love affair with it has made me run around the metro in search of the most memorable versions, and my friends will attest to this. The home of my favorite one is proudly here in Manila - Lusso's Foie Gras burger to be precise - but I will always love Hamburg for coming up with this gem of a meal.
Lastly, wouldn't you want to visit a place that manages to have the charm of an old city and the cheekiness of a new one? I love love love this installation. The artist is genius!
The sculpture is a temporary installation by the artist Oliver Voss. I'm not sure what possessed him to build it, but I would love to have me some of whatever he was having when he thought of this!
Like I said - Hamburg seems so magical now. This siren is singing her song to me.
