Katerina when I met her in in 2019. She was 85. She lived by herself, her children and grandchildren barely ever came to visit. With around 60€ pension she could hardly survive. She’s been widowed for over 40 years and said: “I can have bread, potato, sometimes tomatoes - that’s all I need. Back when I was young we didn’t have anything, especially after the wars. I remember eating only what we found on trees: bark and leaves.” Katerina’s place was freezing, I sat there with my winter jacket on and was still freezing. I don’t know how Katerina is holding up today, if she is alive and healthy. But I know how horrible and unjust it is that a woman like her has to go through war after war - being exposed to meaningless power struggles initiated by people who will never have to suffer like she does. The situation in Ukraine is terrible and I kindly ask you to support @caritaswirhelfen or any other serious organization helping in the ground. #ukraine

It’s still a little unreal but: we are moving into a new, gorgeous, big office with @dariadeh 😭 And the best: we have a little shop attached to it which means regular and longer pop ups in our home town of Vienna, which has supported us from the start. Next week huge truck loads of furniture are coming and I am so happy the secret is out so I can start sharing the progress in my stories with you ❤️ #dariadehHQ

Ich weiß gar nicht, wie ich dieser Community danken soll. 11 Jahre sind es inzwischen, die ich auf dieser Plattform verbringe. Es wäre nicht ohne euch, ohne euren stetigen Support. Dass ich das, was ich hier täglich von mir gebe, meinen Beruf nennen darf, habe ich euch zu verdanken. Danke, dass ihr zuschaut, unterstützt und da seid. Dank euch konnte ich dieses Jahr fast 30.000€ an karitative Zwecke spenden, wie @seebrueckeoffiziell @vereinutebock @frauenhaeuserwien @tierschutzdirekt und noch einige mehr. Dass ich in der Lage bin, mit meinen Unternehmen eine so große Spende zu tätigen, habe ich euch zu verdanken. Danke, danke, danke, dass ihr da seid, dass ihr nicht weg schaut und dass ihr mir eure Zeit und Vertrauen schenkt ♥️

It’s September 2003, it’s my first day at @diegraphische. School ends and I walk down to the tram with this girl that’s twice as tall as me. She’s sneezing like crazy and offers me a tissue. She cracks a stupid joke and I’m the only one laughing (nothing has changed since then 😜). It was the beginning of a friendship that has been lasting for more than half of our lives now. @sophiemeisi is not only one of my longest and best friends, she’s also my co-worker at @dariadeh and I’m so happy to have a wonderful woman like her in my life. Thanks @alixrosephoto and @pichulikafrica for capturing our beautiful friendship 🥺💕 Anzeige wegen Verlinkung
