Description

I am a positiv active person, who likes outdoor activities and beeing in the nature. I love to invite friends for BBQ or dinner or to meet for a picknick on the lake. I grew up in a small village at a lake and spent a lot of time at my uncles farm, I love the countryside, to work outside and with animals. To practise Yoga and QiGong in nature somehow keeps me connected to myselfe. I would be happy to teach you QiGong! Since many years I learn Spanish and now, that my 21 year old daughter studies abroad and my 15 year old daughter stays in September for 1 term in England, I get the opportunity to stay abroad again, to improof my spanish and to make new friends. I like to learn more about water managment and a self-sustaining way of live or how to start a perma culture. I am enthusiastic and infect other people with my energy. To realize new projects with you and give input, would be great. In my daily life I do cancer research and work on the bench under steril conditions. If you like, I could share with you insights into human biology and newest trends in cancer therapy. Before going to university I learned medical nurse as a job and worked during my studies as night watch for patients, who needed special care.
