Favorite Music

Dependent on the mood I'm in, I like all sorts of music from Classic (Bach, Beethoven, Tschaikovsky),
Vocal Jazz (Standards - Ella Fitzgerald, Billy Holiday, Dinah Washington) and Pop Music (as long as it's not -what we call- 08/15) to Country or Worldmusic (from Africa or Turkey).

Favorite Books

My absolute favourite is "The sacred diary of Adrian Plass" - I've read it several times and still giggle while reading. - In general I like historical fiction, crime and humor.

Favorite Movies

I like british films, as I like their sense of humour. One of my favorites is "Keeping mum". I also like films that are based on a true story, e.g. "Kalender Girls", The Kings Speech, Florence Foster Jenkins.

Favorite Television

I like series, especially Crime (e.g. Major Crimes, Rizzoli & Isles) All-time favourite: Gilmore Girls Couple of German and austrian films/series, e.g.In aller Freundschaft, 4 Frauen und ein Todesfalll

About Me

I used to be a teacher, but went back to university a couple of years ago to study psychology, which is great. I am married and I have two kids (a girl (9) and a boy (6)). My friends and close family are very important to me - I love music, arts and craft, going to the cinema and playing badminton. I also like playing games (like card games, for example). I hate cooking. If I had a joice I would rather clean up afterwards than doing the actual cooking. However I like baking.

Favorite Crafts

I can't really say I have favorite crafts. But I certainly like mixed media, messing around with colors, working with clay, stamping... I like trying new things. That's exciting: Always looking for new experiences... I love journaling and I'm getting into ATCs right now. I would enjoy mail-art, too, but haven't found a partner yet. I also enjoy sewing.

What I like

  • RABBITS, elephants and donkeys
  • art (abstract)
  • "natural" themes (e.g.clouds, trees, water)
  • quotes / sayings / prompts
  • baking
  • colours: red, pink-lilac-purple..., black+white,
  • POSTCARDS
  • orchids, daffodils
  • fruit and herbal teas
  • cookbooks
    .... list is not finished...still a lot to add...

PLEASE NOTE

I always stick to my commitments, which means: I sign up. I send. And I rate. I usually send on the last day, and sending overseas via snail mail can take a looong time. If you don't receive anything within reasonable time, please send me a note before rating to sort things out. I will do the same.
Thank you and happy swapping!

I hate

  • anything to do with dieting
  • reality TV
  • plastic surgery
  • action movies
  • spiders
  • society magazines (all that gossip about the rich and beautiful...)
  • cooking (don't be confused: I like cookbooks, i.e. I like LOOKING at the pictures, but I hate cooking)
  • lies and untruthfulness
  • ignorance and disrespect

Comment: I love the guinea pig postcard. My Ludwick surname came from Bremen to Australia in the 1830s. It was a long time ago but my sons are proud of having a German ancestor. I am glad that you enjoyed Sydney. I visited there last year. Kangaroos are easy to find in nature, koalas are harder to see.

Comment: I got them a little while a go, so please excuse my late rating (I'm in the middle of a move!). Thanks for sending, although I'm a tad confused as to how they were sent from Hunstville, Alabama USA (they're postmarked January 4th)
Response: As quite a few letters got lost in the post recently I put a couple of swaps together, so I could send them registered and make sure my letters got to the US. My cousin then posted them forward.
