She had a bunch of tattoos, and shared this, her Lucky Cat:
This is a version of the traditional Japanese maneki-neko cat.
Annika explained, "I studied economics and, in Asia, everybody has [the maneki-neko cat] in their shops for business prosperity." She added, "for me it’s just like having a career and being lucky at what I do and loving my job."
When I asked why the cat is holding a sign that says "No Pain No gain," Annika replied, "because sometimes you just have to work hard to earn what you deserve ."
Annika hails from Germany and I asked why she had the phrase in English. She modestly replied, "Because it doesn’t sound that good in German … I used to live in England and California, so I really like English … I have [tattoos in] English and French and hardly any German lettering."
This cool cat was tattooed by Andrik at Farbenpracht Tattoo in Munich, Germany.
Thanks to Annika for sharing her maneki-neko with us on Tattoosday!

Dieser Oberarm sieht aber nicht nach einem Tattoo aus Zofingen aus. Ich finde es immer sehr schön, wenn man sich ein Tattoo in Aarau stechen lässt. Dort haben die Tätowierer jahrelange Erfahrung und können ein Tattoo auch Personen machen, die nicht sehr stichfreudig sind. Das Tattoo Studio in Solothurn freut sich auf alle Besucher und berät gerne über Piercing Aarau und Tattoo Aarau.
