Professional biologist (Dipl.-Biol.) from Darmstadt, Germany, since 1999 living and working on the Canary Islands, first from 1999 to 2020 on La Gomera, since march 2020 on La Palma, retired in summer 2021. Every Summer we are spending 1 to 2 months in the italian-speaking part of Switzerland (Valposchiavo). I love hiking in the mountains, plant- and insect-photography and looking for and classifying plants and insects. Some of my newer (digtal) photos you can see on my flickr-account: https://www.flickr.com/photos/185574629@N02/
