Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
Learning about ecological gardening and dynamic forest-gardening; reducing the ecological footprint, planting plants into my garden or somewhere else, developing a new mission for my work, finding fiddlers for twin-fiddling, spending good time with my mother.
ABOUT ME
I just became 50 and quit my job - yeah! Apart from that, I'm a friendly, attentive person who loves playing music, being outside, spending good time both with people and alone. I like to talk and to be silent, to be slow and not to hurry.
The last two years I used to learn and play old-time, bluegrass and swing with my lovely band; from time to time I like to travel to my garden (which is more a wild biotope) for to make small planting-experiments, which appear more or less successful...
For profession I'm a social worker for almost 25 years.
PHILOSOPHY
Trust your inner fine-tuning, stay in balance, be passionate and grateful, use your brain, be responsible, try something new, love yourself, follow your ideas, find a focus.
