About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Find the right mode of living...

ABOUT ME

Quite a few years abroad... but German nevertheless, I guess... on the other hand, I don't care too much for cars or soccer and other "German religions", and try to always stay happy and friendly :-) Besides that, I am a consultant for nonprofits, living in Berlin.

PHILOSOPHY

Too many convincing ones to choose from... but... being really interested, helpful and friendly always helps :)
