Description
I am 62 years old and fairly independent. The past 30+ years I worked in different fields of tourism but have also run a small old farm house/cottage in Germany.

In my previous life I was manager of a tour operating company for over 25 years. Before that I had guided groups in Europe, tested and rated hotels in the UK, and way back during uni times also jobbed at a hotel/reception etc.

My native language is German, but through a lot of contact and business with Great Britain I also speak English fluently.
