About Me

CURRENT MISSION

...,learn about live, getting openminded, give smile's, go for adventures, experience new cultures, lifestyles and food etc.

ABOUT ME

After study of geography i worked for a while as a scientist in Germany. The call of nature, more experience and traveling lead me on my bicycle.
So, i left Germany early 2011. Crossed Europe and Asia, spend 2 year's in australia and it's not over. I really enjoy my free life. The slowly way of traveling and the incredible impressions you get from all this different cultures, traditions, languages, lifestyles and the beautiful people all around the world.
The decision to leave was one of my best one's, it changed my life and made me to a better person.
