Burlesque at Beaumarchais NYC, Project Explorer travel videos fundraiser. Qwiki: How to avoid getting sick when traveling?
Thanks to all my NYC Pirates who supported the ProjectExplorer.org fundraiser! We raised around $2000 to go towards the low-income school visits program. (Keep reading for photos and my new travel tips how-to video.)
We gathered at Foursquare’s SoHo office for the event.

The office was filled with games. Cris gives ping-pong a whirl.
I am very grateful to everyone who came, and hope to see you all again soon.
A pleasure to see friends from high school to today!
After, I reunited with Dances of Vice’s Shien Lee at Beaumarchais.
Every Wednesday night, she hosts Nuit Blanche burlesque at the French restaurant. The performers are sassy yet classy — corsets, sailors — and put on a tantalizing show. (Above image courtesy Dances of Vice)
PS: Thanks for the huge response on my first Qwiki video about keeping colored hair healthy! Here’s a new one.
I’m sure you wonder, how does La Carmina travel so much and not get sick? In this Qwiki, I share six secrets for maintaining good health on the road. Watch it above and here.

Partying with DJ SiSEn in Berlin! Best Germany Goth alternative clubs, music, nightlife. Go With Oh Europe rental apartment.
Shooting with Discovery Channel’s Oddities in NYC today! But for now, let’s go back in time… to my naughty Berlin adventures with Yukiro Dravarious.
We stayed in a marvelous Go With Oh rental apartment, which you can book via their Oh Berlin site. Purple is Yukiro’s favorite color, so this was an easy choice.
Since we have many friends in Berlin, including dear Gsus, we were glad to welcome them in our arty flat.
We loved the modern art all over the walls. There was a full kitchen, and a welcome bottle of wine.
The apartment was centrally located in Charlottenburg, an artistic and upscale district.
Literally hours after we got off the plane, we were out on a nightcrawl. The 0.80 Euro beer was unpleasant…
… but the grain-packed German bread was heavenly.
To our delight, we found absinthe in many of the bars we visited.
The Japanese underground community congregates at Anko-kai, a regular event at Club der Polnischen Versager (Ackerstraße 170, Berlin). DJ Sisen, who moved to Berlin from Tokyo, rocks a PVC jumpsuit and buffalo horns.
Organizer Nobu (the pantless one) performed a twisting, modern dance.
The spirit of Harajuku, in Berlin.
The dress is Bros Products dress (Hong Kong) and the jacket is Lip Service, both gifts.
Coming up: Berlin fetish weekend, a horror bar and a guide to the best Goth shops.
Wearing Angelica Brigade hair flowers, and the winning tshirt design by Joanna.
Thanks to apartment rental site Go With Oh for making this Berlin underground coverage possible.
Have you explored Germany’s dark side? Which Berlin Goth clubs or art events would you recommend?
