It’s me—Nicki! So glad you stopped by.

Just thought you might enjoy some of my story: A trueborn American girl from the
Midwest followed the love of her life to settle in Germany about 30 years ago. 20 of
which have been spent living in berlin! Of course I don’t live alone. My husband,
Klaus (a retired helicopter pilot), my son Mike (trained camera-man) and not to forget
the family cat – Will—are also part of the family.
(Pssst—I have to admit, having a son as a cameraman comes in mighty handy when
I’m trying to catch an image on film!)
I got my bachelors from the University of Illinois and then went on to study to become
a certified travel agent here in Germany. But sitting at a desk all day somehow
wasn’t all that glamorous anymore.
And when my son was born I decided that being a stay-at-home mom taking care of
her family sounded just fine.
Suddenly I learned other talents and turned quite creative. I simply had a knack for
organizing: Anything from family gatherings, or birthday parties to special events. In
fact I loved it. Making the shopping list, the decorating; ewww how I enjoy that, Not
to mention setting a mighty pretty table; everything and anything that had to do with
planning an event was sheer joy! And friends and family noticed! So that when Mike
was older I started helping them plan-a-party!
A couple years later I made an attempt at working a desk job – one-more time! It
came as no surprise that I wasn’t enjoying my work day stuck behind a computer. So
when I was offered a job working in a small start-up ice cream shop—making
delicious ice cream from scratch—well—needless to say I left the office chair
spinning and became an official ice cream manufacturer. I learned a lot about
making ice cream and became one of my best customers! (wink) Someone had to
taste the results and so I kind of tasted tons of ice cream flavors. My personal
favorite presently is: Mango! But then I expanded my work experience once more
and started working in a tiny fun bakery just a few walk minutes from my house. Now
my days are filled with cakes—oh so yummy! And cookies—love those round little
things. And Tarts—all made fresh and filling the air with mouth-watering aromas.
Besides being a baking queen, I also do work at the Ronald McDonalds House in
Wedding. Normally you can catch me there on Tuesdays fixing breakfast for all. I
also get to organize and plan the annual Christmas dinner. And as if family, work,
and volunteering isn’t enough I also find time to go to the gym, run Halfmarathons
and participate in triathlons! Although I am super nervous right before the event
begins, it all seems sooo worthwhile when I cross that finish line! And when they slip
that medal over my head—well—let’s just say life couldn’t be more joyous!!!
So there you have it! This is me!
And my personal goal is to
Inspire the creative side in you,
whether
it’s cooking,
Or baking,

Or decorating,
Or organizing

Yours, Nicki
