Hello There, I’m Carlo from Cologne. However, currently I live in Kazakstan, where I work as an teachers assistant for German. Especially the step out of Europe into Central Asia have shown me, how much I enjoy talking to unknown people. It’s seams always to enrich my soul, when I learn about others experiences and views. Of course I enjoy sharing as well. When those conversations happen other the board, at a game of chess even better ;)

Besides that I’m more of an active fellow. I love especially hiking but I can get excited about any sport. Always open for a match of football, basketball or a friendly round of sparring if that’s your cup of tea.

Also I’m lately deep into learning Russian. This hobby an my current occupation opened my eyes on the topic of languages in general. If you are curious about the difference in sentence structure Russian vs. German hear me out… I can talk quit a bit about it. The language thing of course has also sparked a stronger interest in different cultures. One reason more for being hear on this site.
