CURRENT MISSION Always look on the bright side of life ABOUT ME With my wife Renate I live in a small, country-like town. Its half an hour by rail to/from Hamburg. We like gardening, reading, traveling, cycling. Our main interest is learning from people something about their country and their way of life and not not staying somewhere without any costs. We dont smoke. PHILOSOPHY "the road to hell is paved with good intentions"
