CURRENT MISSION

ABOUT ME

Besides the travel hotspots I enjoy to explore places that are off the main tourist paths. In countries like Iran and Cameroon I made unique travel expieriences.

I play the electric guitar, mainly blues, rock and some jazzy tunes and I am interested in photography. Below you can find some of my works. Music, film and literature and arts in generell are a steady part of my life.
I am an en epicure. I love to cook a good meal, enjoy a fine glass of wine and having a good discussion with good friends.
I enjoy going to concerts and dancing to good music, sometimes (but not as often as in my young days) till the morning sun arises.

Some of my photograph works:
