I am a travel professional from Berlin living in London. I came to the UK with the intention of staying for one year to do some “Work and Travel” and met the love of my life. As so many others I just never left!
I have a Bachelors in Tourism Management and an Executive Masters in Business Administration. I love everything travel and tourism, but my secret passion, which everyone knows, is cruising! I count myself as a lucky person to be working for a cruise company and therefore doing what I love.
