About Me

What could I tell you about me? Well, I'm a very happy person - I smile a lot and have quite a few laughter outbursts, even when it is totally inappropriate (in business meetings - Today I'm gonna show you how to transform Gold into Cottage cheese...lol!!!). I love going outside, just watching and listening. Hearing the wind in the trees, watching the sun or moonlight sparkling on the water, feeling the first snowflakes landing softly on my hair...that is what gives me peace and let me forget all my sorrow and worries. I can't go anywhere without a book, too - that's right, I'm a book nerd. I like novels as well as good poetry like Rainer Maria Rilke - he is my favorite poet - but also Goethe and Theodor Fontane. I also absolutely loved reading the autobiographies of Franz Liszt, Beethoven and Mozart. My other hobbies are playing piano and flute - although it's more the flute now, because I don't have my piano anymore...I miss that! I play mostly classical music like Bach for example. It's hard to play, but fascinating. Let's come now to things I don't like: doing the dishes aaand ironing. Okay, back to the things I like!! TRAVELING!!! I'm a real globetrotter now. I discovered Germany, France, Scotland, Norway and last but not least Alaska!! My next trip will be to Alberta, Canada for one whole year. I'm so looking forward to this and especially to see all my friends again I met on my last trip. What I'm going to do after that....I don't really know, maybe I get a permanent visa (I hope so!!!) and if not, I might settle down in the Scottish Highlands. So, if you ever need a guide to visit some European countries, I would love to help you out! If you want to see some pictures of my adventures you can check out my website: www.hintsofparadise.homestead.com - don't forget to sign my Guestbook ;o) Have fun!!
