  • Description

    I am 58 years old German guy. I have traveled a lot in my life, seen many interesting places, and done a lot of sightseeing tours. But now, I want to take part in the daily life of the people and practice my English.
    What have I done until now and what is my daily life like:
    Since 1990, I have been working as an occupational and art therapist in a psychiatric hospital.
    Additionally, I have been leading an inclusive theatre group for 20 years with people who have psychiatric experiences, staff from our hospital, and citizens from Ravensburg. So far, we have had many public performances. If you are interested, you can have a look at our homepage: www.co-pa.de.
    I am married and we have two adult children. Our big garden, with some flowers and berry bushes, provides a good opportunity to relax from my job. In my free time, we take part in a dancing course, and I spend time improving my English. Helping with daily chores, like cooking and cleaning, is self-evident to me.
    Of course, it is a challenge for me to go abroud because of the language barrier. I have level B2, and I don’t know if this is enough. Three years ago, I started to improve my English more and more in several courses at the “Volkshochschule.” Lately, I have been in contact with different native speakers, and we have a weekly live chat to practice our language.
    It would be glad if I can share all the good experiences witch I made by myself. I hope I can receive life experiences from you in an similar way.

    More details about my language interests
    I am always interested in language exchange. The best way to learn, I think, is to do it in daily life and work. So, I hope to meet a patient language partner.
