The Search for Great Grandmother’s Farm
This moving presentation follows my personal journey to seek out any remains of my great grandmother’s farm. Spurred on by mother’s many amusing stories of her childhood summers at the farm, a plan was hatched to travel deep into the former state of East Germany in the summer 2017 and search for remnants of those happy days.

Post War Partition of Germany
My trip to Frauenhagen becomes a journey through recent German history. Let me tell you more about the Russian occupation of eastern Germany, its subsequent partition and the eventual re-unification. Hear about my Mother’s last days at the farm, which were far removed from the joys of those carefree summer holidays.
Is the farm is still there? There’s only one way to find out – join me for this absorbing talk!
