Hiya everyone, from what I've seen I'm the first European witch to join the group My name is Bonnie but feel free to call me Playful if you like. I'm 25 years old and have been practising for more than 10 years now. As I said I'm from Europe currently living on the border between the Netherlands and Germany (love living on the edge). My parents live in Germany, my siblings live in the Netherlands and a good portion of my family lives in the UK and US so I travel as much as possible. My witchy interests are very varied, I call myself a kitchen witch because for the last few years domestic witchery has been my main craft. I do have other interests though and love trying out other things. I'll list the biggest ones: - Deity work
- Flowers and Plants
- Cooking and Herbs
- Tarot and divination
- Animals (Any animals but I personally have 2 cats and a dog)
- Spells
I started my practice working on my own, had a few years of coven experience until they disbanded, tried setting up my own ritual groups for a while, had some great experiences with them but at some point there was so much in-group drama I stepped out. I still enjoy writing rituals and guided meditations when my old members need them. Personally I am a student at Uni to become and English Teacher in my last year currently, hopefully not done studying for a long while though. My non-witchy interests are super varied as well! I love video games, especially Bioware games. I like to write, draw, read, swim etc. Love being social and creative and interacting with others. Okay that's a little about me! Can't wait to meet you guys!

Hi Bonnie, and welcome from Maryland.
Had a chance to visit Stuttgart a few years ago - loved it! I'm hoping to make it to the Netherlands one if these days- maybe after I retire. I'm drawn to the Germanic/Nordic countries because of my religious views (Vanatruar) - I want to see where it all started.

That's great Shane! Honestly there is nothing quite like the German and Austrian mountains if you want to go find the Nordin Gods. My profile pic is round where my parents live and those types of standing stones and historical sites are scattered everywhere.

That's so awesome!
I LOVE the mountains out there! Spent a vacation in Switzerland many years ago and could live in the Alps.

Heya Bonnie! Welcome to the forum and I hope you enjoy it here! We'll have to exchange recipes or something because I seem to be doing more and more of my witchcraft in the kitchen these days
