Blog 14: My Discovery about the Painter
In English both the artist who paints pictures and the skilled worker who paints the wall are called “painter“. I just tried it myself some weeks ago and found out that it really makes sense. They are very similar. Drawing and painting a wall both need similar hardware: brushes, colours, a base (no matter a cardboard, canvas or a wall panel).

Blog 1: Ein Neugeborenes Baby
English Version Heute haben ein paar Freunde mich angerufen, um mir ihre glückliche Nachrichte mitzuteilen: Ihr Baby war gerade geboren! Es brachte mich zurück zur Geburt meines eigenen kleinen Jungen. Die Welt ist seitdem nicht, wie befürchtet, kleiner geworden, so klein, dass es nur um das Baby und die kleine Familie handelt.
