About Me

I would call myself a swiss-nicaraguence since i am living in both of the countries (medio/medio) since 5 years.
In nicaragua i am.working as dive instructor as well as massage therapist and in switzerland mostly as HR-specialist.
My home (self buildt, little house) in Nica is based on a little, slightly remote island on the atlantic coast. In Switzerland i am living in the swiss-german part, a small but pictures town named Baden.
At the mom i am traveling thowards Nicaragua. Since a lot of things did change in my privat life i took myselfe some time to air out my head, think about n line up my near and middle future, which is currently what im still doing. On my way i catch up with old friends & want to meet new, lovely people, too :)
I am a widly interested person, love music, art, all kind of (outdoor)sports (climbing, hiking, freediving, yoga, scuba diving, riding, etc).
There is actually more to tell, if you want to know, just ask!

Music, Movies, and Books

Always difficult wuestion, depends pn mood and concept.
Music and moviewise i find good ones in any gendre..
Same with bookes. I guess for me it also very mich depends on the depts of the creators mind.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Well, i am hardly ever using the word amazing for myselfe, but...
I did designe and build a house with my ex partner in the caribean. In the meantime i kept my balance (&finances) in working in human resources in switzerland, did a diploma in classical massage & some certifications in othe branches of massage therapy, made the step from divemaster to instructor and would also be allowed to teach yoga. This was within the last 5 years. The housebuilding was and is a crazy but amazing project.
Again, ask if you want to know more!
By the way.. toooting my own horn: i am ok in writing poems n such ;)
