Hello!
I'm someone who approaches life with enthusiasm and versatility. I embrace life's journey with its highs and lows, cherishing the learning opportunities in every experience and trying to keep a positive attitude through it all. 😊 I also believe in nurturing my inner child and embracing out-of-the-box thinking whenever possible.
--- My Past Journey ---
In May 2017 I said goodbye to my apartment and job as a web designer/front-end developer and embarked on a 1.5-year adventure. My journey took me to incredible places like Portugal, Poland, Indonesia, New Zealand, and Australia. Along the way, I had the pleasure of meeting amazing people, working with fantastic animals, building exciting projects, and soaking in every experience. 🌍 ✈️
--- Excited for the Next Chapter ---
Now, I'm eagerly anticipating a tiny 3-month sabbatical, ready to create more wonderful travel memories.
--- Things I Enjoy and Am Interested In ---
🎹 Playing the piano, a new passion of mine.
🧘♂️ Practicing yoga, especially yin yoga.
📚 Exploring Buddhist philosophy.
🧘 Meditation.
🏋️♂️ Engaging in sports like bouldering, skateboarding, mountain biking, etc.
🌿 Spending time outdoors and in nature.
🌏 Meeting people from all over the world.
💬 Discussing life, philosophy, books, series/movies, and all kinds of interesting topics.
🌱 Learning new things to broaden my horizons.
📸 Taking photos.
🎨 Appreciating arts, movies, books.

-- GENERAL SKILLS --
Well, what are my general skills? I can climb on trees, laugh when nobody else does, eat a lot without gaining weight and laugh about myself.
Let's see what else:
○ Gardening & Landscaping Skills: Brush cutting, weeding, planting, mulching, and more. Learned through various volunteering experiences.
○ Basic Building Skills: Experience in working with materials like clay and wood.
○ Animal Care: Hands-on experience with goats, horses, dogs, chickens, and calves.
○ DIY and 'Macgyvering': Love tackling challenges with creative solutions.
○ Childcare Experience: Gained during my 9-month civil service, involving direct care for children.
○ experience in teaching: I was tutor in college and I offered private tutoring for children and students. In addition I work as a lecturer for a private education provider.
Educational Background:
○ bachelor's degree in Computer Science and Media & master's degree in Digital Media/Media Design
=> In other words: computer or media skills like (web) design, app development, marketing or advertising, etc. But at present I want to spend as little time in front of the computer as possible or at least not toooo much ;)
Some Creative Stuff
○ quite good in photography (I'm kind of an amateur photographer)
○ basic guitar and very basic piano skills
Always Eager to Learn:
○ I am quite quick at picking up new skills and always eager to learn more.
-- NOT VERY SKILLED AT --
Let's talk about things that I'm not very good at (also quite interesting, right?)
○ orientation (I often get lost – but it's not a big deal and mostly amusing)
○ talking about and playing football (soccer) – I'm really not into it... ;)
○ baking (definitively not much experience with it)Alter

MY PROFILE CONNECTION:
Currently, I'm traveling with my lovely girlfriend, Alina. We're not just a couple that keeps to themselves; we're quite social and enjoy meeting new people and spending time with them. While volunteering and traveling, Alina and I often explore separately as well – we love our together time but also value independence.
CAT ALLERGY:
About my cat allergy: It's usually manageable as long as I'm not exposed to cat hair in my sleeping or eating areas, and there's no litter box in the toilet or bathroom. Otherwise, I might end up with red, watery eyes and a runny nose 😸
