It's all about the music; growing up in California in the 50s and 60s, the culture that formed and directed my life. This is the first chapter of my autobiography, "Das Lied meines Lebens," that eventually led to my first podcast in English. Much has changed since then, learning how to write and speak personally, about the details of my story. In the following episodes, I eventually started adding excerpts of old tape recordings, and fascinating letters.

Please follow me on Instagram, (vandoorenkristine), there you can find all of the photos that coincide with each story. Often the pictures, are reels with the music of those day, that give you the feel of that period in time.

You can find me on Facebook, Youtube and Tiktok; under (Finding Purpose - Kristine van Dooren.) There is also a filmed interview, including old 8mm films, that my grandson made! In a nutshell, you can get an idea, of what my podcast stories are about! In German, there are also two televised interviews.
