Vita
Born 1976 in Berlin, I currently live in Brandenburg with my Czechoslovakian Wolfdog/Alaskan Malamute boy Hell's Li'l Lucifer.
If you want me to describe myself I would summarize it with three words: archaeologist, artist, film maker. Beside these I love taking photos, writing and editing photos and videos. As well I love to read, specially critical books and those specialist on ancient cultures and history. A huge part of my life I spend outdoor with my dog, often combined with my passion for filming and photography.
