CURRENT MISSION

My mission is to offer a positive cultural experience for all foreigners in order to decrease all the prejudices in this world - and to have fun and enjoy life!!! -

ABOUT ME

Ok, let's get more detailed. I grew up in Kronberg, which is a small but cute little town near Frankfurt. My mom had a house there and I lived there (until I finished high school) together with my mom / brother and dog (I love dogs!)My dad emmigrated to Mauritius - you can find a couch there as well - he's registered, too (Look for Gerry Shark). After high school I went to Mannheim and studied international business administration for 3 years. I enjoyed it although it was quite stressful sometimes but I never regret it, since it gave me 4 beautiful months living in the heart of Finnland and 3 months living in norhtern Spain, directly on the beach. After graduation I got a job in the Daimler Bus Sales dept. in Stuttgart and 4 years ago changed to supervise a cool project management team of 16 people in Mannheim / Ulm. After seven years I got the chance to deep dive into operations area, started out as a project manager and am now managing a production line with 180 people. Right now I live nearby Mannheim. I love to enjoy life, even though I work quite some hours, but it is positive stress, so it is ok. I love to meet new people and my dream is to surf couches around the world for a year, experiencing all the different cultures from an insiders point of view. Generally speaking, I am open minded, easy going, curious to meet and experience new cultures and languages, flexible, spontaneous (very!) and I love music and dancing, especially Salsa.

PHILOSOPHY

Life wihtout risk (and fun) is a waste of oxygen!
