FRANZISKA OUT AND ABOUT

Outfit number two was Franzi’s lightweight turquoise-color dress with dolman sleeves, another regular dress from previous outings, here combined with beige ankle boots. Portrait of the evening Interestingly, in the picture below, the color of the dress appears more like azure blue than a turquoise dark cyan. In the hotel’s transition chamber, going from preparation to performance 😀 . To the city center of Hamburg, it was just a 10-minute walk. With some time to kill before my reservation at a Thai restaurant a mere 200 meters further, and well provided with a ferocious thirst, this local brewery provided for a suitable solution to both problems. You might have experienced yourself what Microsoft Copilot knew to share with me about Thai restaurants and cocktails, namely that they "offer an extensive cocktail selection because it highlights the diversity and freshness of their cuisine, fosters a convivial atmosphere, meets international expectations, and creatively utilizes local s...

The day started out on bad note.

Granted, weekend trip number six wasn’t as nerve wrecking anymore as weekend trips number one and two were, but nonetheless, travelling en femme has lost nothing of its excitement, especially as I continue to pick new places to visit en femme and new venues to attend. This was the second weekend trip crossdressed that I was able to extend to four days, leaving before noon on Thursday (photo on the left) and returning in the late afternoon on Sunday (photo on the right). And this is what happened in between – entirely and exclusively en femme!
