Short life story
South America and Spain
I spent my childhood in Switzerland until I was about 20 years old. Soon, however, Switzerland became too small for me and I was drawn to the wide world.
To travel around the world, I set up my own business and expanded my knowledge with areas of expertise that are particularly in demand abroad. I graduated from the Hotel Management School Belvoirpark Zurich and trained in photography, programming, graphic design, etc. Since I traveled around South America for the first time, I learned English, Spanish, and Portuguese as well as my mother tongue German.
So I could spend about 50% of my life in the following countries: 1 year Brazil, 1 year Argentina, 2 years Uruguay, 1/2 year Colombia and 2 years Ibiza Spain.

Asia - Vietnam
Through a project job in Vietnam in 2012 I also got the desire to discover Asia. Finally, I stayed in Vietnam for 5 years. Today I live temporarily in Switzerland and Vietnam.

Switzerland - (Current place of residence)
At the moment I live with my wife (Vietnamese) in Almens Graubünden about 1.5 hours by car from Zurich. Almens is a small village with 200 people and is surrounded by a beautiful landscape and the Swiss Alps, where my brother runs a restaurant with 4 hotel rooms, and my wife works as a cook for him.
