Description
Together with my wife Yvonne we went away from Germany at the first of December last year. We have spent the first two month on campsites at the Algarve to calm down from the work we both did the last years; our next goal is to find projects or communities where we can live and work together with nice people on good projects!
I was working before as an IT manager, Yvonne was working as a state-certified educator in Germany.
We are both motivated to support eco projects where we can help reaching the goals of the hosts!
