Autorenporträt

Born in 1962, Anna Mandus lived in the USA and Asia before she settled in Germany for some years. She founded a company and started to write, but it was not long before the travel bug bit again, and she set out to discover a new continent. In the South Western corner of Africa she met a man, a real Namibian-German, a Südwester, who made her the second mother of two teenagers. In Namibia she learned the art of decorating thorny acacia Christmas trees and how to correctly read a rain metre.
