I am not really an early bird, but these days I set off from home in Frankfurt on Mondays at 04:15 am to catch the 04:56 Inter City Express to Munich. Usually I fall asleep right after getting on the train… and usually when I wake up, there is nothing remarkable, apart from the growing crowd of commuters on the train. But this morning, I woke up just in time to see the sun rise, the day break… it’s a new day, a new week, a new beginning.

The sunrise on 23/02/2015 – seen from the train. somewhere between Nuremberg and Ingolstadt (Feb. 2015)
