Overview
About Me
We are allways enjoying to meet new people from over the world - after living in different countries on different continents we are settling in Istanbul these days - nobody knows, how long or what the next place might be in future. We are open minded.
But sorry, we will not call anyone friend we did not meet in reality, so please do not ask to be "friends" if we did not know each other.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Living and working abroad (in a very different culture) is the most amazing thing I've ever done. In the beginning everything was an adventure, these days going shoping back home in Germany is the adventure ;-)
Teach, Learn, Share
Teach? It's my job but I'm enjoying to have some time off ;-) But someone who wants to do a little bit of practise in German is wellcome. And off cours taking photos - there are some things I know and some things I would like to learn.
Learn? Everything can be interesting
