Travel information

I am currently

Description

I'm a bio-engineer for environmental protection and stopped traveling 40 years ago.
Now I'm retired since April 22, so I'm traveling again, looking for peaceful places.
I'm an agile person, restored a 100 year old schoolhouse with friends, tried it with a 30,5 m, 100 years old sailboat, which didn't worked out, repaired cars, restored a 50 year old Horex and planted about 1000 trees at the school. Beside vegetables. And chicken, dogs, cats and horses. We even build a workshop out of wood and clay.
The last 25 years I was engaged into digital networking and ended up at a museum.
After a year traveling Costa Rica, I stayed in Germany for 3 months and now done a 1600 km Bicycleride to Baza in Spain.
If you have a dream, maybe I can help, to get you a bit closer.
