Du kamst mit 10 Wochen zu uns, deiner zweiten Familie. Zwei Wochen, nachdem wir unsere erste eigene Wohnung bezogen hatten. Einen Tho & Yvi Haushalt ohne dich gab es nicht. Fast 16 Jahre lang.
Jetzt ist das Haus leer ohne deine Tapser auf dem Parkett. Ohne dein Bellen, aus dessen Tonlage man hören konnte, wer zu Besuch kommt. Ohne das Gefühl deiner weichen Ohren unter meinen Fingern.
Jetzt lebst du nur noch in unseren Erinnerungen. Und dort bist du unsterblich.
Wir werden nie vergessen, wie du in deinem ersten Winter beim Herumsausen immer die Abkürzung über den gefrorenen Brunnen genommen hast - und dann im Frühling wie eine Cartoonfigur mitten im Sprung reingefallen bist. Seitdem hast du wie eine Katzendiva sogar um Pfützen einen Bogen gemacht.
Wir sehen immer noch die vielen kleinen Büschel aus deinem Puschelschwanz im Stacheldraht hängen, weil du dich beim Spielen auf dem Feld immer drunter durch gezwängt hast.
Wir hören immer noch, wie du vom Spaziergang mit deinen Hundefreunden zurück kamst - und sofort bellend auf die andere Seite des Gartenzauns gesaust bist, um sie von DEINEM Grundstück fernzuhalten.
Wir lachen immer noch, weil du in den Herbstfeldern wie eine Gemse mit Sprungfedern zwischen den Ähren hochgesprungen bist, wenn du auf Mäusejagd warst.
Wir riechen immer noch, wie die Dusche gestunken hat, nachdem du dich im Magen eines toten Tiers gesuhlt hattest - und wie schlank du nass ohne dein plüschiges Fell immer warst.
Du hattest ein gutes, glückliches, langes Leben. Und du hast uns mehr Glück geschenkt als wir geahnt hätten. Die Dankbarkeit hilft uns durch den Schmerz, dich gehen zu lassen.
Ruh dich aus, kleiner Kämpfer.
Wir lieben dich für immer.

This is what happiness looks like,
this is what keeps us strong.
Familie, nature and pure joy.
Officially outnumbered by cuteness 😊😆

Spotting this sign at a zoo was a photo op we couldn’t pass up 🤣
He will turn 15 this month, making him officially legendary 🫡. He is truly the best. Even if his top speed is now “graceful stroll”. But don’t worry he is still loud and proud! 🥰
What do you think? Should I flood your feed with more Apollo cuteness? 🤣

Back from the Cannes Filmfestival and the March‘e du Film for a week now. What an experience 🤩 This is now officially one of my favourite times of the year - only second to christmas. The people, the shared passion, the (mostly) amazing weather. I am thankful for all that I learned and the people who helped me along. I am officially in love with Cannes. Now I just need to let go of my perfectionism and post more pictures 🤣 Oh, well! 🤪

Too often we are caught between yesterday’s “should haves” and tomorrow’s “what ifs”. The past and future are fighting for our attention, and guess who loses? The here and now.
Blink and we might miss it.
Don’t let the past steal our peace or the future steal your joy.
Pause. Breathe. Look around.
What’s that one moment today you can truly savour?

Since people were asking and our mobile phones are working again - yes we were hit by the flood, but we are healthy! We lost our car, our office and parts of our house. We don’t have electricity and are not allowed to drink tap water. But however hard you think you are hit - the people next door might need even more help. Even we are giving surplus water to the next and helping each other. Yesterday some kids were running around giving morning coffee to everyone - made my day :)
✨ Stay home, stay safe, but stay awesome.
Being a workaholic, it’s hard for me being trapped at home and watching the world freeze. Are you feeling the same?
.
But then again, now is the best opportunity to do everything you’ve always wanted. To literally take time off to pursue your dreams, reflect your happy moments, improve yourself or spend time with your family and loved ones. We can get through this together.
.
What are you doing during lockdown? Games? Netflix? Garden? Workout?
I’m keeping mind and body busy as usual. Workouts in the morning, creativity and strategy later. .
Stay home. Stay safe. Keep smiling.
– Tom

🥂This is not what it looks like!

Hey March, hey Spring, hey Instagram!
Let’s celebrate how everything comes back to life and starts over.
Let’s fill fancy looking model headshots with life and get to know the man behind the shirt.
.
Honestly now … For a while I had been reluctant/too busy/too lazy to share my daily work with you, but now I thought: Hey, why not? So, here’s the first glimpse at my daily life and work, both behind and in front of the camera - and I'll Really try to keep you updated Regularly.
.
Let’s start with this beautiful shot by #christinawiest from my latest shoot with the talented and amazing actress @johanna_garth who I’ve known for almost a decade now. Time flies, but good times just Pick up where they left off, don't they?
.
Who are the people you can pick up good times with at any time?
.
Be lazy. Start over. Keep smiling.
– Tom

Dog walking my way through the cold 🥶
I demand higher temperatures!
Maybe I should do some shirtless pics out of protest.
.
Be yourself. Stay cool. Keep smiling.
