Hey there!!

I adore my job as a teacher for 6-10 year old pupils - it was just made for me, even if it is stressing as well. I also had a job in a bar in the evening once a week as a kind of equalizer, but I lost it in corona-times. Now I am looking for somtehing else to find my balance.

Also in Corona times I had a break up with my boyfriend, as I found out he isnt true. I fell down really hard. But in that hard times (corona and breakup) I really found out what life is about and that its worth it. Sometimes you have to fall to rise up again.

I found out I really love water, Standup-paddeling, swimming. I love to dance, meeting friends, read, listen to podcasts. All of that is life in its greatest way.

Also I met someone new in my life who is all I ever wanted. Strange that feeling so dark and loving so much can be close in time, if you are just open for it. And I learned to forgive. So my exboyfriend in that time is now just a friend in my life. Never thought this would be possible.

I live in Aachen, Germany, really close to the Netherlands and Belgium as well. In 2022 I became 40 years old, even if I feel like 24 sometimes, .. okay.. and sometimes like 60 (mostly in the morning when I dont like to stand-up :-D)

I love the Netherlands. I learned Dutch years ago. As I was together with a dutch boy I am really good in speaking and writing it. So, if you are dutch : schrijf maar gewoon in nederlands! Dankje!

Also I like spanish, even if I am not that good talking or writing. But I would love to translate - a wonderful language!

I would really love to read a bit about your person - where you live, what you do for work, things you really want to do or already did in your life!

If you dont know what card to send or what to write:

I love quotes!
But your postcards can show whatever you like! I am very curious in what you choose yourself. Feel free to draw or paint something as well if you feel like! I am not good in arts, so I wont judge anything you send me :-)

Sooo.. now I am looking forward to your postcrossing-card!

All the best for you out there ;-)
