● About Me
I’m Anne-Claire, born and raised in England, resident in Germany for over thirty years. Until recently I was self-employed, teaching and translating English and German. I have three adult sons, currently scattered around the globe. None of them are in any hurry to have children, so I was very lucky to meet “Elisa”, five years ago, when she was hardly a year old. I later met her grandfather – “Opa” – with whom I happily live in sin.
As both Elisa’s grandmothers live abroad, I am fortunate enough to have morphed into the role of ersatz “Oma”. She has always called me by my name, and that suits me just fine. As you will see from my posts, a wonderful friendship has developed between us over the years. This is why I refer to her as my “Mini-Bestie”, because I truly feel that she is one of my closest friends.
