A fad has taken the LivingHomes team by storm—juggling!
Florian took up the hobby after finishing college and it quickly became an important part of his life. He can juggle three balls or clubs, but he is practicing to reach five! He loves teaching it too, which is how the rest of us caught the bug.
Juggling Facts
- Typical juggling, with three objects, is known as “cascade” juggling, but there are many different patterns and tricks.

Great post!
@chels I know what you mean, its hard to find good help these days. People now days just don’t have the work ethic they used to have. I mean consider whoever wrote this post, they must have been working hard to write that good and it took a good bit of their time I am sure. I work with people who couldn’t write like this if they tried, and getting them to try is hard enough as it is.
