Matthias Stührwoldt is passionate about reading and narrating his texts in front of audiences all over Germany, but especially in the North. The important thing is that he can milk again in the morning; because according to his own admission, he gets the best ideas while milking. In other words: without the inspiring effect of milking, he probably wouldn't have come up with anything for a long time.
