Who am I

I am a very energetic, positive person who loves adventure and new challenges. That's why I cancelled everything in Germany 3 years ago and moved to Barcelona, started all over again and built a great life for myself here. I feel most comfortable in an international environment and am very interested in psychology and mindset. The people around me always tell me that I have such a positive vibe that people simply enjoy being around me and my friends appreciate my advice and constructive way of resolving conflicts with calm and respect.
