About me

Icon
Since almost 30 years I travel to the US - together with my family. I love this country with its people. As I do not like winters, I fell in love with Florida. The tropical vegetation and animals in the nature preserves and the miles of beautiful beaches along the SouthWest Gulf Coast make the perfect mix. In 2016 we decided to build a vacation home for us. When we are not present, we open it for nice guests from around the world. What wonderful people I was lucky to meet already.
