Actually it was just a very vague idea, but when a dear online friend of mine asked me, when we were coming to Cape Town, one thing led to the other - and 6 hours later we had a confirmed flight from Munich to Cape Town. That was on December 31, 2008. And we have just arrived from a fabulous holiday - with more than just one suitcase full of memories!
You can read about our trip in the travelogues of my South Africa page. Enjoy!
I will try to post more pictures and tips soon - but please give me a little time to let all the impressions sink first....!

Well, the Euromeet 2008 is over and I must say that meeting so many new people and seeing old friends again was fabulous! I hope everybody had a great time! For pictures of the meeting, have a look at this link list

I can't keep up with building new pages, because it seems like I am traveling too much! These are usually short trips over weekends or so, but the destinations and experiences are so wonderful that it takes awhile for me to let things settle....!
Pages that I will have to build, complete or update include (to take just June and July destinations): Katowice/Poland, Munich/Germany, Berwang/Austria and Bad Wimpfen/Germany, Cordoba/Spain, Granada/Spain, London updates and many more !!!
So please do stop by again and check them out! Future plans??????

A little bit about myself I am from Germany, now living near Karlsruhe. I have been fortunate to visit many countries around the world and get to know people in all different parts of the world! And since I made friends here and there, I am much more aware of the different places and I am more concerned about what's going on there. Especially my sponsored children in Bolivia, Mali, Brazil and China make my world a smaller one, because I have the feeling, that they are my family and I feel very close to them. If you are interested in this aspect of sponsoring children or projects around the world, please feel free to browse through the most interesting website of Plan International or feel free to ask about the orphanage MDC = Meu Direito a Crescer (My Right to Grow) near Sao Paulo! - you might want to reach out and give a hand to a child in need yourself! Read about the recent situation here! Other than that I had the once in a lifetime chance to be a bone marrow donor to a young Polish girl in 2003 - and in November 2005 I finally was able to contact her: she is now a lovely young lady of 19, a student of English and best of all is that her body has accepted the bone marrow and she is alive and well!!! Isn't that wonderful in the true sense of the word??? In March 2006 we finally met in person - read about it on my Krakow page! My latest project is my personal website with ebay to support the children of the MCD orphanage! With every bid you can also support those children there! Thanks so much in advance!. |  | |
