CURRENT MISSION

preparing my next motorhometrip though South America...

ABOUT ME

I am an unusual German girl, who spents most of here life travelling due to the work in tourism. I organize and guide motorhome-tours in South America and among the PanAmerican Highway. The tours last from 140 to 180 days. My special job gives me the change to combine the things I love: travelling, working with people, speaking foreign languages, improvising and organising..all at the same time! I am really happpy with my life and enjoy everthing to the fullest! I love Buenos Aires and once I settle down it will be here. I also spent a certain time in New York, a city where I feel at home.
I really love travelling...making friends all over the world, get to know different life styles, different cultures...it's not easy to describe myself, you just have to meet me, I guess! I would say, that I am an uncomplicated, funny, open-minded, energetic and interesting person. I can be selfish sometimes but close friends can always rely on me and I would go very far for them... At the moment I party a lot, which normally also includes some drinks and a lot of dancing! During the day I am happy as long as I have my camera with me. I do some writing even if I don't consider myself a good writer, at least not yet :-)

PHILOSOPHY

Twenty years from now, you will be more disappointed by the things you did not do than by the things you did do. So, throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbour. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover. (Mark Twain)

The only way to get rid of a temptation is to yield to it. Oscar Wilde

RISK more than others think is safe.
CARE more than others think is wise.
DREAM more than others think is practical.
EXPECT more than others think is possible. Cadet Maxim

If you are going through hell, keep going. Winston Churchill

Be bold and courageous. When you look back on your life, you'll regret the things you didn't do more than the ones you did. H. Jackson Brown, Jr.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I took a flight lesson and actually flew an airplane for about half an hour under my control. It was an amazing feeling!

Walking the wave in the Paria Wilderness between Arizona and Utah, United States...it is such an unrealistic, bizarr and outstanding place...

watching a "Superclásico" live in Buenos Aires, that means a soccer match River Plate vs Boca Juniors. I am no soccer fan, not at all..but the atmosphere was just great..the air was vibrating, amazing!

Spending three nights in the Peruvian rain forest, sleepingin a lodge without electricity, telefone or any other modern divices...my room was open to the jungle, I just had a mosquito net over my bed..in the morning Howler monkeys woke me up....

Catching ice out of a glaciar lake in Patagonia/Chile and having a good whisky with real glacier ice, which was probably thouthends of years old...however, even better was seeing an iceberg breaking down from the glaciar wall and hear that particular sound.

...so many great travel experiences...I prefer talking about that stuff personally..just ask!

Teach, Learn, Share

I need to improve my French, anybody interested in French conversation? Preferable in Buenos Aires?

I could teach you some German or Spanish, some skills about photography...

For motorhome-trips in the future I could need some help. I am looking for somebody who has good Spanisch and French skills (one o those two languages should be your mother tongue), who likes working with People and knows how to drive a vehicle? Interested? Sent me a message!
