Online platform with a blog, newsletters and e-magazines, Circus covers areas like fashion, interiors and all aspects of the children’s world. Circus is based in Berlin, but published in English and German. Interview with Ruth Janessa Funk, the lady who created it.
Ruth, tell us about yourself…
In the German language we have a special word on how the fashion world behaves: “Modezirkus” (fashion circus) with it ups and downs, artistic manoeuvre, with it’s Celebrity endorsement … It’s all like in a circus!
I love my work but my children are what gives real meaning to life. It is so wonderful and enjoying to see them growing up. Every day I am so amazed what great person they become.
What are you focusing on at the moment ?
Berlin is such an exciting city! Everyday there a new places, restaurants, shops opening ( but also closing ;-))) I love the opportunity to try something new. That’s Berlin! Everyday something new! One favorite place I go to regularly is a Turkish market in Berlin Kreuzberg, called Maybachufer! It’s a must see. They have lot’s of fabrics and great food (love the African fried bananas!). At summertime always different street musicians are playing there and people group together to listen. A fun place.
