In my previous life I was manager of a tour operating company for over 25 years. I was based in Wisconsin/USA and Brighton/UK and Cologne/Germany. 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 I also speak English fluently. I lived & worked in the USA and GB for many years.
