You know I like to write. But perhaps this also applies to letters. And yes, I mean real personal letters, like in the old days, with a stamp and sent by post! Do you still know?
It all started when my pen pal request was published in the wonderful magazine “Vorhang Auf” when I was 8 years old.

Since Curtain Rise is mostly read in Waldorf families, we grew up with similar values and even had some things in common, which was very nice.

But one pen pal remained: Schwerin’s with Thea. Now read more here
