about me:
(under construction)
I'm proudly eastgerman, born in DDR and grown up a little bit outside of a small village, hillside of a wineyard, surrounded by 5 lakes. The evening befor my birth my dad paddled my mum in a kayak accross the lake in front of our home. I think this gave me the impulse for my love to water and canoeing.
Now I live in a small old town on river Spree, also in a landscape provided with several lakes.
My first camera I've got at my 10th birthday and I became the photographer of my class in school. My first SLR I've got, if I've been 16 years old.
With 16 y too I started
traveling
abroad for mostly 4 weeks every summer.
The destinations You can see on Hollyworld.

I'm interested in
camera technology
(I would like to own a camera constructed with the hitec of Canon, the Design of Pentax, the sensor layout of Foveon or Fuji (but real 24 -36 MP in 24x36-size !) and the CPU /processing designed by Nikon),
elektronics and other electric
languages, other countries & history, politics
my hobbies are
taking photos,
traveling
cycling and canoeing (kayak)
see waterfalls and -cascades, mountains,
remote islands, unspoiled tribes, wild animals
and I want to absorb all this - thats is not possible within tourist groups. !
so tourist agencies stay away ^^
I like Africa, southern America, the great Polynesian triangle and the unspoiled eastern Europe, but in asian destinations I'm interested too
However I like it coming back home again !!!!!
PS: I don't eat insects, snails etc. and I need dayly shower or a river for bathing.

And I'm Chocoholic
|
|
btw:
having sex is more healthy then chocolate,
however,
Chocolate You can have every day,
You have not to say compliments after,
You can enjoy it in the public ...
Chocolate makes You always happy,
- also if it's not hard on,

my favourite color :
what do You think ...
sometimes I buy things,
which I don't need, just because
they are so amazing blue ...
and
I need a glas milk for breakfast !
I prefer brewed coffee (no machine made)!
I'm no friend of meaningless small talk;
I've allready used smartphones, if Apple didn't know, how to write this word,
and an 1kg-subnote before Intel created netbooks and ultrabooks.
In gardens, forests and canoe - sorry - there I don't like music play .
My "Holiday"-sod will mowed only every 2-3 weeks,
and I've been young too ^^
sports and the belly

What I don't like:
- websites, wich waste Your time with gaudy animations instead of information
. . .
- audio-advertising at websites
- popup-windows, which waste Your time with unimportant ask
- the male cat, which pees every spring at my door
