My name is Andrej and I am 33 years old. I am born in Kyrgyzstan but grew up in Germany. I lived and worked in Scotland for 3 months and in St. Petersburg for 2 years. I speak fluently German, English and Russian. I learn Spanish while traveling South America for 1 or 2 years.

Since I was 13 years old I worked in numerous jobs after school and I loved to gain work experience and having my own (small amount of) money which I invested in traveling.

The last 12 years I worked in logistics and transportation. I studied International Management alongside my fulltime job and got
my Bachelors degree end of 2017.

I played baseball in German for almost 20 years. Being successful as a team gives me goosebumps. But I also like to do other sports like extreme diving, parachuting, surfing and wakeboarding. I had a motorcycle at home but I had to sell it because of the long journey. I dance Tango Argentino for more than 8 years because Tango teaches a lot about oneself. But i want to learn also Salsa, Cumbia, etc. I love to read books with a about personal development. I prefer eating local food.

I prefer to invest the money saved in trips and experiences than in things that I hardly use anyway or that give me pleasure for little time 😅

Music, Movies, and Books

There are so many great books out there but my all time favourites are The Alchimist, Think and grow Rich and the biography of Nelson Mandela.

I love to listen to audio books because I can work or travel while "reading".

Movies...f**k, I think I am addicted to movies and netflix - thank god my tablet recently overheated and broke down so I can focus on life ;-)
