that's marlies in the middle with the white hat and blue bikini top

she is here working as production manager for the the infamous "burning man" event in the nevada desert

Some things to know about Marlies before meeting her:

Favorite color :    really none, what i like changes constantly. it also depends if it is a color on objects or on clothes those that i wear or those someone else wears, i.e. i might not like a color on me which i like on someone else.

Favorite ice cream flavor : also, really depends. i mean mango is really not mango everywhere no? stupid basic strawberry can taste like a dream in some places.   in my home town's gelateria i would always get nuts (!)

History of pets : we used to have a dog when i was a kid, called lumpi. no idea how one can give a dog such a name. then there was another dog later, cindy. after cindy crawford. and before that a red and white cat called tom. tom disappeared one day. the dogs were basically always overfed by my grandma. oh, and there was schnurli a grey cat, before tom. she scratched me once i still have the scar.   i had a hamster once, a grey one. i forgot the name (gini?) but maybe it will come. this was actually really "my" pet the others were more members of the whole family.   i loved to have him running around free in the room and one day he just escaped...
