About Me

CURRENT MISSION

peace, love & music (old fashioned, I know...)

ABOUT ME

I'm a divorced father of four, living and working in Hamburg as a free sports journalist. I love my job, but also good live music acts, soccer & nightlife. At present, I try hard to improve my guitar playing.

After school I took a sabatical, which I spent mostly in LA/California, where parts of our family do life.

In my "first life" I was a banker with working experience with Barclays Bank in London, where I worked in 1981/82 for about nine month.

I'm 50 years old since last october, and know want to see a bit more of the world, especially in UK, where I'm most interested in Scotland. Italy - Rome - and Russia - Moscow & St Petersburg - will be my next destinations

PHILOSOPHY

don't look back...
