Seoul was is a blast when it comes to food. But not only the culinary pleasures were heavenly, but also the culture, the architecture and the people themselves were wonderful. (hier: Seoul, Korea) https://www.instagram.com/p/Bxz3hhDC9ZG/?igshid=142lh7ht46u3d

Boston's famous for its donuts. After all, the franchise chain Dunkin' Donuts was founded nearby, in Quincy, in 1950. At the beginning of April I was in Boston for my work. A good opportunity to try the local donut specialties. During my little research I couldn't help but try the delicious, gigantic donuts of @unionsquaredonuts . A wonderful yeast dough, fluffy, a bit greasy and very aromatic. The Signature Donut, Maple Bacon, with huge pieces of bacon, was a dream. The equally enormous Brown Butter Hazelnut Crunch was just as delicious – fragrant crunchy hazelnuts in a mild buttery caramel. So if you have the chance, then come and visit Somerville/Boston. #donutlovers #foodie #foodies #foody #foodlover #foodlovers #foodblogger #wanderlust #travelblog #travelforfood #donutlove #donutgram (hier: Union Square Donuts) https://www.instagram.com/sara.marquart/p/BxZBFwyhSY5/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=omxnskm7amy6

A bite of a donut. My love for pastries is infinite. Sometimes, I just travel for donuts. There was a day, where I went 30 minutes by Taxi in Kazakhstan, just to try the one and only donuts in town. Which was not worth it. Recently, visiting Boston, I strolled around the city to try every single artisanal donut shop... And now, traveling the Philippines, I am about to get a bite of all their diverse donut shops.

Palawan.🥭🥑🇵🇭 Being offline for some days and staying on a remote island... 💚 That feels so good. Sleeping in a tent on the beach and waking up next to the person that you love - is there anything more beautiful than that? #wanderlust #travelaroundtheworld #travelforfood #foodie #foodblogger #foodblog #travel #travelblogger #travelgram #bodybuilding #fitgirl #instafit #diet #cleaneat #flexing #quadzilla (hier: El Nido, Palawan) https://www.instagram.com/sara.marquart/p/BwylR9OBnlg/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=8ewgqtfgb32r

Seoul is treating me good. Beautiful scenery, amazing food... Some people ask me what motivates me in life? Life itself. It is to sweet and precious, to waste time. #wanderlust #travelforfood #travelblogger #travelfordonuts #foodinspiration #foodie #foody #foodblogger #foodblog #seoul #coffeelover #travel #travelaroundtheworld #foodlover #foodies #foodlove (hier: Gyeongbokgung Palace) https://www.instagram.com/sara.marquart/p/BwdUkGuh8el/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1mxy7txyawahc

Wonderful and exciting days lie in the past. I could gather unique experiences and memories at the Re:Co Symposium and CoffeeExpo. Thank you for inviting and having me @petergeodesic & @subjecttochanges and all the @specialtycoffeeassociation However, my trip was also all about the great food. That picture shows Regina's Pizzeria, which is running since 1926 ever since, even feeding Boston's people throughout the times of the Great Depression. Yummy Neapolitan style pizzas with a thin crust and excellent toppings! Do you want a single video with all the delicacies (longer)? Or would you rather have them all sorted individually or thematically? So for example a donut video, one about Chinatown, American cuisine, Italian cuisine? Please write to me in the comments 🥞🥯🍔🍟🍕🌭🍩 #foodinspiration #wanderlust #travelforfood #foodie #food #foodporn #italianfood #foodblog #foodlover #foodie #foody #foodies #foodblogger #foodreview (hier: Regina Pizzeria) https://www.instagram.com/sara.marquart/p/BwUJHz2ByN5/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=r2ozlvmibcwm

Holding the whole world in my hands: A plate of #vitellotonnato with huge capers.🐄🐟🇮🇹 The veal was slow-cooked, tender and juicy - covered by that classical vitello sauce, containing anchovies, tuna, capers and a lot of mayonnaise. The sauce had a perfect balance of a slight acidity and a little sweetness, going well with the creamy texture. Yummy!

The case I am pulling has a small professional roaster, manufactured by @ikawacoffee You just need the device and a tablet to roast green coffee anywhere - with a stunningly high precision and reproducibility. This is particularly interesting for green coffee traders, exporters and roasters to evaluate the coffee and gain an insight into the potential aromas of it. The Deutsches Museum will stage this devices to be used by our visitors. So have fun! #cosmoscoffee #coffeelover #coffeelovers #coffeetable #coffeeexpert #coffeedaily #coffeemug #coffeeroasters #foodblogger #curator #museum #museumsinsel #museumlife #coffee #kaffee (hier: Deutsches Museum) https://www.instagram.com/sara.marquart/p/BvUH2AHBegS/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1w6qkqlcz5uor

Was ist guter Kaffee? Sara, welchen Kaffee soll ich trinken? In meiner Forschung gehe ich dieser Frage immer wieder nach. Deshalb wollte ich in meinem neuen Podcast über die Qualität von Kaffee, speziell Spezialitätenkaffee und Third Wave Kaffee sprechen. Ist eine Andersartigkeit gleichzeitig ein besser? Und wer verdient überhaupt am Kaffee? Link zum Podcast (Spotify und iTunes) in meiner Biographie @sara.marquart Dort findet ihr auch eine kurze Zusammenfassung des Podcasts. Viel Spaß beim Hören! #specialtycoffee #thirdwave #spezialitätenkaffee #coffeelover #coffeeexpert #coffeetable #coffeetime #blogger #podcast #coffeescientist #research #science #coffeedaily #coffeelovers #coffeemug #coffeeroasters #sustainability (hier: Deutsches Museum) https://www.instagram.com/sara.marquart/p/BvBl_cBB7eA/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=148njvos7x6ax

Even in Munich, I find little reminders to beautiful travel memories, like the @bamihouse1976 . The restaurant's ambience has a remblance to street food stalls in Vietnam. As it is all about the food: their Bánh mì and Phó is delicious! Bánh mì is a crispy, fresh baguette, spread with liver paté, Vietnamese sausage (similar to Bavarian Leberkäse), fresh coriander, hot chili sauce. A really heavenly pleasure. The crispy bread that has absorbed the juices of the vegetables and the paté makes a perfect match: Fresh aromas meet hearty fleshy ones. Absolutely comfy food to me! The second is probably the most famous Vietnamese soup. It consists of a broth in which bones, beef shoulder, cinnamon, black cardamom and star anise are cooked. Delicious rice noodles will be put into the broth, as well as shortly simmered, thinly sliced beef. #banhmi #phobo #pho #vietnam #vietnamesefood #foodblogger #foodies #foody #foodporn #wanderlust #travel #eat #eating #eatingfortheinsta #diet #soup #baguette #sandwich #girleatworld #girleatsworld (hier: Bami House 1976 Turkenstrasse) https://www.instagram.com/sara.marquart/p/BuyjnYmBcsI/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1jj01qyv6x46f

Coffee, Paper Cups, Sustainability? Coffee per se is not a sustainable product. We ship millions of tons around the globe and raise our fingers for paper cups? Of course, they are shitty, sometimes there's just no other way to consume it (e.g., traveling). The question arises, how extreme am I and do I address 100 % perfection to myself and my fellow human beings, when it comes to sustainability? Or is it generally about mindfulness and attentive consumption? Am I a machine to be optimized or a living human being that tries to meet self-imposed standards as best as I can, without being a dogmatic hypocrite? I think there are worse things than the paper cups that the media like to thematize so passionately? Of course, I should not enjoy that coffee to go every single morning... However, sometimes there is no other way. Shit, but well, I try to do it better next time. For myself, I rarely drink coffee outside my home or my office. Just because my own coffee is still "the best". #minimalism #simpleliving #coffeetable #coffeeexpert #coffeetime #specialtycoffee #coffeelover #coffeedaily #sustainableliving #sustainability #coffeelovers #blogger #travelblogger #cosmoscoffee #coffeemug #coffeeholic (hier: Munich, Germany) https://www.instagram.com/sara.marquart/p/BulAynMBkr_/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=u3hcddsxx3t6

Climate Change is Killing Our Coffee

How climate change is threatening our daily cup of coffee in the morning. What are the reasons for lower crop yield? What can we do to secure coffee in the future, so our children can still enjoy that marvelous black beverage.

After 2 months of injury and at the end of a 5x5 with 80kg. Not my best performance and still not performing properly. 😳

"Du mußt doch endlich einmal begreifen, was das für ein Kosmos ist, von dem du ein Teil bist (...) ! Daß dir nur eine engbegrenzte Spanne Zeit vergönnt ist; nutzt du sie nicht zur Erleuchtung deiner Seele, dann wird sie eines Tages verstrichen sein und du selbst dahin, und eine zweite Möglichkeit wird dir nicht gegeben werden." - Selbstbetrachtungen, Marc Aurel. Lebenszeit ist das Kostbarste, was wir in unserem Leben haben. Eine Währung, die endlich ist. Deshalb nutzt die Zeit und habt Mut zur Verwirklichung eurer inneren Wünsche und Ziele. Mit euch müsst ihr das ganze Leben aushalten 🍒🍑🍉

I'm currently reading Marc Aurel's "Meditations" on my way to work.. And I stumbled upon the following text passage today: "Dwell on the beauty of life. Watch the stars, and see yourself running with them." Be attentive when it comes to lifetime. This is the only thing, which you cannot bring back. 💚💛💜🍒🍉 (at Hotel Villa Tempesta)
