About Me
Hello from Berlin! I am widowed with two adult children, and a proud grandmother to three adorable granddaughters. Since 2015 I have been retired from a great job in adult education. In Feb 2025 my husband passed away after a long, severe illness. He is dearly missed.
In April 2026 I had emergency heart attack surgery with several stays in hospital. Now I'm back home again, on a good way to recovery. After a longer break I am trying to slowly return to swapping.
My Likes and Interests
I love the sea, especially the rough charm of the North Sea. My favourite seasons are autumn / winter and Christmas time with its joyful spirit.
I'm interested in books, photography and anything related to writing and paper crafting.
I like watching murder mystery films like Inspector Barnaby/Midsomer Murders, Death in Paradise, Agatha Christie's Hercule Poirot and Miss Marple, Sherlock Holmes (the old series) and spooky movies on Halloween.
I collect postcards and ATCs. My favourite subjects include: Maps, city views, trams, typical houses of your country, shop windows, books and bookstores, libraries, lighthouses, wind- and watermills, air mail, post offices and mailboxes, snow and snowmen, hearts, hats, parasols, rain and umbrellas, the nature and seasons.
I also love Halloween, Christmas and Christmas markets, Snoopy, Pettersson and Findus, Atelier Nouvelles Images (multiples), art and illustrations ..... and surprises!
