  • Description

    Description

    Hi, I’m Jörg, a friendly and outgoing guy from Germany.
    What truly motivates me is connecting with others—whether it's spending quality time with close friends and loved ones, or meeting new people and discovering different ways of life. I love being surrounded by nature; hiking, exercising outdoors, learning from the environment, or gathering natural resources are some of the things that make me feel grounded and alive.

    Spending time with others brings me a lot of joy, especially playing board games, doing sports, sharing drinks or meals, or taking part in fun group activities. When I’m on my own, I enjoy reading, crafting, writing, drawing, watching movies and working with wood.

    I’m especially passionate about learning—particularly about history, engineering, crafts, naval topics, and geopolitics. I like to work on natural materials and timber engineering. I’m always open to new experiences and love growing through meaningful exchanges with others.
