About Me

My favorite arts are: writing, drawing. I am quite amateur in both. I write journals, short essays about my insights and perceptions and sometimes poems.

I love to read: literature (English and German), crime stories - I am not into phantasy, vampire stories.

I enjoy my time reading, writing, studying. My husband and I live in a small house with a tiny garden. We have three cats in the moment.

I like cooking, enjoying my garden, doing housework (sometimes even with pleasure), walking through the woods, occasionally strolling the streets and shops of nearby towns, taking photos, ...

I'd appreciate when you write something about you when sending me something.

I try to be as "green" as I can. I am honestly concerned about environment and fair trade.

I love cats, wolfs, bears, birds, butterflies, well, almost all fauna (except apes)

flowers, trees, almost all flora

Favorite Colours

blue and green in almost all shades,

the colors of sunrise and sunset,

all earthy colors ...

black and white combinations

Favorite Flowers and Plants

Lilies, Iris, Anemone, Tulip, Poppy

Trees: Beech, Birch, Yew;

Herbs: Sage, Lavender, Thyme, Oregano, Laurel,

Wishlist

art postcards/photographs or other little art pieces featuring my favorite animals, flowers, plants, colors

Note cards, letter sets, stationery, deko tape, washi tape (floral, with my favorits animals or plants, scenery, kawaii, vintage)

(rubber or clear) stamps or die cuts with butterflies, cats, hearts, flowers, animals

pencils, markers, ink, ink pads are always welcome

Food & Beverages: I like to try traditional or local specialties of your country.

teas: all but no fruit tea & no artificial flavors (I am allergic) preferable tazo, yogi, ecological and fair trade brands you can also send me coffee and cocoa, other beverages (from your country)

candy, cookies, chocolate: e.g. lärabar or other vegan or fairtrade brand

I am nuts for nuts (prefer walnuts, hazelnuts and peanuts, but NO macademia), chocolate (no white chocolate!), chocolate truffle (love them with alcohol)

I really prefer quality over quantity.

don't hesitate sending specialties of your country :-) I like to try out new things!

examples of your art or craft :-)

upcycled or recycled useful or exceptional decorative stuff (earrings, bracelets, ornaments, napkins, journals, kitchen supplies, stationery any kind ..)
