About Me

I am a spontaneous, open minded and creative person. I like to laugh, communicate and think outside the box.

In 2017 I took 6 month off to travel through South America.

In 2019 I started to be a Freelancer in Agile Coaching and love to help Software Engineers to create fantastic products.

And now (April & May 2024) I am traveling Japan, South Korea by bicycle (Seoul to Busan) and Taiwan and interested in learning about your culture and way of life. So if you wanna show me your favorite food/drink, cafe/restaurant, place to relax and enjoying nature, favorite spot in town, I would love to go there.

Currently I am sharing my travel journey via Instagram via a daily reel. Check out @follow_mo_around 🎥
