About me

Hello and welcome to my blog.

Thank you for your interest to learn a bit more about me. Let me give you a short introduction of myself: my name is Guido, I am a 43 year old gay german born in Cologne and I live together with my dutch friend Jelle in Holland's capital Amsterdam.

I'm the only child of my parents Peter and Lieselotte and though I do not have a sibling by blood I consider my best friend Dani as close to a brother as one possibly can.

Besides photography I have some other interests as well, like for example travelling around the world. A few years ago Jelle and I got bitten by the "cruise bug" and since then we like to spend our vacation onboard a cruise ship. But we also love to fly to different places around the world by always choosing different airlines, aircraft types and routes and airports that are new to us.

Another favourite pastime is surfing the internet and doing creative things with my Apple iMac computer.

I also developped a great passion for civil aviation. I not only work in the industry but I also enjoy flying (not myself though...) and all things airline. I like reading books and magazines about airlines and airports and I used to collect all kinds of brochures and timetables but I quit doing that some time ago.

Public transport by train, tram or bus is another of my interests and I enjoy riding about them as well as taking photos of them and studying associated route maps and timetables.

Finally, I also have a great passion for visual things. I enjoy maps, graphic and industrial design, architecture and interior design and photography as well as fine bone china (especially airline china) and glass ware.

Usually, I like being at home though together with Jelle but I enjoy an occasional trip to a cafe or bar but especially a nice restaurant with friends. I turn my head for bear men and love to meet and be around them but I also care to see old friends and meet new ones. So why don't you drop me a line and say hello?
