Books that are available ARE available, but I always trade them for an other book. In short: a book for a book.


"Libraries gave us power,
Then work came and made us free.
What price now, for a shallow piece of history."
Manic Street Preachers - A Design For Life

The quote on top of this page is a good one, because this what we are doing. Together We are building a "open air library." I joined Bookcrossing because I find the idea wonderful. And as a librarian I'm allways referring people to books.

I always liked books. Because that's why I became a librarian. Sometimes it's hard because we've got twins in the house. But they got the reading bug as well therefore there are quiet moments in our house when we all read. Other activities are photography, cooking and hiking. My ideal book could be a book on restaurants in the country where you can hike and illustrated with beautiful photos.
