Ruth Weinekötter: Münster, Boston, Melbourne - and Vanillekipferl

Ruth Weinekötter is one of the many busy bees organising Australia's most popular community Christmas markets, at Deutsche Schule Melbourne. The event, held on 30 November, attracts several thousand visitors. We asked the mother of two school-aged girls to tell us more about the event - and her high-spirited life journey so far.
