lilagesprenkelt is a blog run by me – Maya!

In case you don't already know who I am, let me briefly introduce myself.

I am writing this from my family's house in the east of Germany, the place I have been calling my home for the past 19 years. I went to Kindergarten and high school in the same street I live in, which means I have probably walked up and down the road for a million times. It's astonishing, when you know a place so exceptionally well, you almost don't recognize it anymore. Nothing stands out. For the very first time, what I am looking for, is not to be found.

Only so much for the backstory. What this blog will really be about, is my year abroad in Kenya – starting on January 10, 2026! I couldn't be more excited to go. To go and learn and maybe, eventually, find.

If one of my blog entries raises questions or you detect any technical problems, feel free to contact me. I am still new to all of this and plan to continue the work on my site in the next months. Thank you for sticking around!
