ABOUT THE BLOG

Sharing my adventures

This blog is from me as a private individual for you as a private individual. It serves no commercial purpose and, in fact, no purpose at all other than to share what’s going on in my life with anyone who wants to know.

English

Some of this blog will be written in English. Entschuldigung to any German readers.

Deutsch

Aber manchmal schreibe ich auf Deutsch. Apologies an meine English readers.
