My story
That's me. I was born in 1987, in Munich. At the time, both Germanys still existed for another three years.
My father was working as an import-export salesman. Yeah, I know, that sounds fishy. As a matter of fact, it was - litterally - fishy: he worked as an intermediate for big, french food industry corporations that wanted their convenience products, mostly seafood, to be found inside german supermarkets. He had come to Germany only a few years before.
Eventually, when I was fourteen, not also eastern and western Germany had reunited a long time ago, but we people had now adopted the Euro, as had most countries close to us. As for me, my family and I moved to France. I went on a public international school in Grenoble, whereas my parents bought a restaurant on the slopes of La Plagne, Savoy. And, like that, for the rest of my education, I spent my week studying in Grenoble, my week-ends skiing and working at my parents, and an excruciating amount of time on fridays and sundays trying to sleep in a french train wagon moving me from one point to the other.
I came back to Germany in 2010. To Berlin, former west... east... That's complicated!
I continued my education for another year, before starting to work as a developer. Wanna know more? Well, keep reading!
