What’s it all about?

Who am I? What am I doing in Maputo, what’s the reason for this Blog and why did I call it Pusteblume?
…to be completed.

My name is Britta, I’m from Karlsruhe, Germany.
I am joyful and calm, talkative and silent, interested and persuaded, bright and grey, thoughtful and impulsive, creative and documental, observant and imaginative – I am myself, day by day, created, invented and formed by the world, you and me.
I write this blog to share my expereinces in Maputo with everyone, to talk about things I consider tellable, to share impressions as well as art with my photography.

From August 2014 I’ll start a 364 days voluntary service in Maputo, more precisely in the ICMA, the German – Mozambiquan Cultural Center. My stay there is mainly onrganised by Welthaus Bielefeld, a developmental association standing up for global social justice and sustainable development. The responsible is weltwärts “the (german) developmental voluntary service”.


Gruppe_Südliches_Afrika

The wonderful Welthaus-Weltwärts-Group, going to different places in southern Africa.



Separated in different headings, you’ll find actual posts, reports and essays in german and english- words about general and actual issues, mainly in the cultural and artistic area as well as my personal stories and experiences I live through during this year. A second big part is photography. I hope you might recover something in the emotions and impressions my pictures show. I permanentely will be looking for streetart in any form to share with you.
Anyhow, feel free to comb through my blog, I hope you’ll enjoy. Don’t hesitate to contact me or to comment on contents!
