We didn’t have a lot of space in our friend’s kitchen because it was their living and sleeping room at the same time. But it felt extremely cozy and my boys loved it. Nobody’s kitchen tasted better than Karma’s. Was it because the preparation and cooking took hours while we were talking, playing games, […]
This is my prince I want to kiss. Will he be my man? He will be bright, beautiful and sensitive. Very simple, isn’t it? Kissing the frog and starting a relationship is very easy, too. What seems to be more complicated is certainly all what comes after. I wish my prince to be different than […]
I see myself from the outside; I see myself from the inside. I am standing in between. It isn’t me what I see. I am different. You look at me and you recognize me. I am trying the same thing: I would like to recognize me. But I always get a different picture. I’d […]
It is a rainy day; school is off. The kids are playing, but not playing together; rehearsing a own play to invite their mothers to come and see. They close the shutters because there has to be special light. They organize popcorn and syrup. They write an invitation card for theirs mums; they even […]

Green isn’t the color I like very much. But when I saw this lamp in India, I changed my mind. It doesn’t often happen that I change my mind. I like to stick to the things I am used to. Since years I keep this painted wooden elephant from India in my kitchen, the […]
Three weeks in India, four weeks back in Switzerland: four weeks of school, homework, getting up at times when one likes to sleep. Tough times. But there are all the memories of our traveling in India. Memories of rich experiences, of living two days in an Indian train, meeting so many different people, playing […]
I am standing here and looking into the future. It is an open space. There are no frontiers; there are no roads. I am thinking and hoping for bright colors. It is bluish and watery. There are no images; there are no sketches. I am crying and following my disordered feelings. It is high […]
Maybe this Indian boy hasn’t seen any Europeans before; maybe he is shy by nature. His father in his traditional dress took him to town to buy a few things. Which world will he be living in in 20 years? Will it be the modern India? Will he be doing the bookkeeping or will […]
