Fräulein Quellgeflüster: Your book café is a special place here in the Westend ...
Vanessa : I love the fact that our audience is so diverse: children come to pick up their books, schoolchildren do their homework here, families, students and we have reading clubs that meet here. It's a cross-section of all age groups. I think the common thread is a love of books.

Fräulein Quellgeflüster: What do you like about the Westend?
Vanessa : The Westend is the warmest place in Wiesbaden, and also the most feminist :-) With its galleries, cafés, small stores, culture and art, Wiesbaden feels like home here!

Fräulein Quellgeflüster: Where do you like to spend time?
Vanessa: I love the Art Nouveau houses in Scharnhorts- and Goebenstraße, the trees, the Wellritz Valley. The "hier & jetzt" bakery and café, exhibition spaces like Godot, the pop-up stores, the flea markets and the Kiezgarten.

Fräulein Quellgeflüster: And what is on offer culturally in the Westend?
Vanessa: Small exhibitions, artists opening up their backyards, readings and performances at Theaterwerkstatt Emma and much more. I can't take part in everything because I'm in my store so often ;-)
