** Due to recent problems, I have turned off Friend Alerts**. If you want to be my Bookcrossing friend, please send me a private message telling me how we’ve met (in person or virtually).**

I love to read. Especially books that are based on a true story or non-fiction books. I read and write English and German fluently. I'd also like simple things in Spanish to help me learn (for example, children's books or those small gift books with just a little bit of text and beautiful pictures or a story…).

I like singing in the choir; listening to good music; painting with watercolors; the fall season with its colorful leaves; wildflowers, poppies, sunflowers, dandelions; the smell of the air after rain; salamanders, butterflies, ladybugs, snails, squirrels; handmade postcards and other small artworks; sitting under a tree and enjoying the nice weather and the things around me; berries and bananas, good food; sunsets; taking photographs with my digital camera; close-up pictures; my hometown Lübeck where I grew up; watching a landscape from a plane; going to church on Sunday morning; cute socks; chocolate; true stories; sending postcards on Postcrossing; watching The Chosen…

Some of my favorite books are Fahrenheit 451 (Ray Bradbury), The Screwtape Letters (C.S. Lewis), the Bible, Schindler's List (Thomas Keneally)and the Moomin books. In general, I like non-fiction and fiction based on a true story. I like it if I can learn something interesting in an enjoyable way.

Wishes for the Birthday Group, Secret Santa and such
- I'm always happy about a wishlist book. I would enjoy most books not only in print, but also as audiobooks on cassettes or CD, or even electronic versions (iBooks, Kindle books, or Nook books).
- Bookcrossing supplies (including wings) or a written and stamped postcard with a bookish theme (maybe with a book recommendation or a quote?). I'd also appreciate links to BCID labels I can print.
- Any art supplies, especially for sketching and watercoloring. Here’s my Art Supplies wishlist if you need some ideas.
- A postcard book.
- a book in very easy Spanish (so I can practice).
- I also enjoy adult coloring postcards colored by you.

If you need more ideas, check out my profile on Swap-Bot or my general Amazon wishlist
