There are some people on Qype who manage to write excellent reviews of just about everywhere they go. Whereas we often get too drunk to remember where we go.

Annette Strauch has over 11,000 Qype points so we had a chat with her to find out more.

Tell us more about yourself.
I just love meeting people from all different walks of life and from different cultures. I had an emergency operation on my spine four years ago - and was very ill but this taught me you only life once! This is my Qype motto: Live life to the full! It is up to you and in your mind what you can do and what you cannot. I love travelling.

I love wellness and saunas. That is why I like those reviews on Qype. Also I like good wine, chocolates and good music.

How did you get so many points?
It is a surprise to me really! I do not really care about the points - but it is nice to see that people are reading my reviews.

What makes you happy about the place you’re reviewing?
The good experience at a place, happy memories, a nice day out - all that makes me happy when I review that place and also the fact that I share the place with interested readers such as fellow qypers.

The place you actually wanted to keep a secret?
Llanfrothen Castle. Not many people know about this place in North Wales and it is nice and remote. A nice little castle in a stunning scenery.

How can people write better reviews?
If they write reviews that are not too short and not too long. Trying to grasp the important info and writing it in an intersting style. This is the secret.

Who else should you look out for?
Hafi46, FalkAndrea and Scipio.

What else do you want to see happening at Qype?
Even more active users in the UK, especially in Wales, maybe Qype Italy, Qype Spain, a real European Qype - this would be my dream!
