Overview
About Me
I previously engaged in local politics, as a human rights advocate, environmentalist and LGBTI activist, while also volunteering as a police officer in Germany. Since 2011, I have been residing in Switzerland for job purposes. Throughout my journey, I have encountered challenges in defining my identity and faced discrimination, but I don't perceive myself as a victim of my own biography. Rather, I am grateful for the valuable experiences that have shaped my life thus far.
I try to approach matters with diplomacy and a calm demeanor, yet my dedication to promoting LGBTI and human rights is fueled by an unwavering passion. Currently, I provide support to migrants. I am open to connecting with like-minded individuals who share similar values.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
I had the pleasure of meeting my later husband from Brazil through Couchsurfing, which was a delightful experience 🙂. As previously said I am a volunteer police officer in Germany, I believe this demonstrates a level of responsibility and trustworthiness.
Additionally, I had the incredible opportunity to partake in a 220m Bungee Jump alongside a friend at the renowned 'Golden Eye Bungee Jump' in Verzasca (CH), famously featured in a James Bond movie. It was an exhilarating experience! Apart from that, I also enjoy riding motorcycles, which adds an exciting element to my life.
Oh, and let's not forget about my daring venture into the world of beekeeping! Yes, you heard it right. I fearlessly embrace the buzzing chaos of honeybees, risking occasional encounters with their cheeky stingers. My friends jokingly call me the 'Bee Whisperer' as I bravely dance among these tiny, striped daredevils. It's all part of my quest to spread sweetness and preserve the delicate balance of nature. Buzz-worthy adventures, honey-filled escapades, and the occasional dance-off with a bee... it's all in a day's work for me!
As you can see I live a dangerous life! 😄
