[oh my freaking deer]
Born on a cold winter’s morning, I grew up in the hilly countryside of Bavaria.
As a child, I spent most of my time in the woods, among deer, stray cats and blue-winged jays.
To this day, it remains a place where I feel at home.
Whenever I wasn’t strolling past gnarled fir trees and on mossy ground,
I wandered through my grandfather’s workshop and took in the scent of timber.
After completing my degree in communication design, I knew that Berlin was calling.
A city so different from the place where I grew up, but which I frequently visited as a child.
Since then, the city has remained my new home.
