All eyes are on Germany this weekend, as the G20 summit plays out in Hamburg.
That means that, thanks in part to yet an awkward encounter with US President Donald, German Chancellor Angela Merkel is back in the spotlight in the US.
Since becoming chancellor in 2005, the former chemist has managed to cultivate an "image of deep personal integrity and a tightly guarded private life," writes Melissa Eddy in the New York Times.
As a result, information about her personal life is somewhat thin, compared with what we know about other world leaders.
However, by piecing together various details, one can come away with a view of the chancellor's daily routine:
