    Britt about herself:

    I love style and elegance ! … and even more: hearts full of soul !

    The flamboyance of people and their inspiring sparkle is ageless and I love it !!!

    I love challenges!

    Life offers us nuts, but cracking them is up to you.

    You’ll only get in trouble if you run away from your challenges instead of facing them and I prefer clarity over bitterness.

    I’m constantly aiming to broaden my horizon and I feel I’m expecting less and less and am able to give more and more. We’re living in tough, exploitative times but it’s up to you to make the best out of it – and let the sparks fly !!!

    There’s hope for humanity. You.

    It´s in each and every one of us !

    Fill up the treasury of your beauty.

    Only when the power of love

    overcomes the love for power,

    this world will find its peace.
