CURRENT MISSION

If only I knew...

ABOUT ME

I'm German/ American and I cam to Mozambique without a job, because I was very curious about this country, having studied about the history and literature, Now I've been living in Maputo for a year and a half. I work for a French NGO as a technical assistant in a vocational training and economic insertion program run by a Mozambican NGO...basically this means I help young people from less fortunate backgrounds in Maputo get into the job market...it's not easy!
Before coming to Mozambique I lived in the UK pretty much the last 11 years. In between I also lived in Mexico for a year and Rio de Janeiro, Brazil for 4 months. I studied Spanish and Portuguese at University and during which I also lived in Cordoba, Spain for 5 months and Lisbon for about 7 months working and studying.
I don't really know how to describe myself...I like people, I think people are the most important thing in life and I'm easy going...that's a pretty rubbish description!... I hope when you meet me you can find out more and form your own opinion and create your own 'description' of me:)

PHILOSOPHY

This sounds cheesy but treat other people they way you would like to be treated.
