ALRIGHT, I’M MARKUS – NICE TO MEET YOU!
Cheers for popping by my bio! I’m chuffed you’ve made it here. At forty-four, I’m living the bachelor life and absolutely loving my gigs as a travel blogger, novelist and literary translator.
FROM EASTERN EUROPE EXPERT TO STORYTELLER
In my “past life”, I spent nearly a decade gallivanting around Eastern Europe as a Senior Key Account Manager and Area Sales Manager. Blimey, those were some exciting times! I wasn’t just sealing deals with big cheeses; I was diving headfirst into Eastern European cultures. From knocking back vodka toasts in Moscow to endless nights in Prague’s beer gardens — I’ve done it all and loved every minute!
THE CALL OF MY HEART
But here’s the kicker — deep down, I had this secret passion I’d been bottling up for half my life: writing! One day, I thought to myself, “Markus, it’s now or never, mate!” No sooner said than done! I grabbed my trusty MacBook and plunged into the fantastic world of words. Was it a bit bonkers to jack in my successful career as an Eastern Europe whizz? Too right it was! Do I regret it? Not on your nelly!
WHEN I’M NOT BLOGGING OR WRITING…
You might catch me:
Playing chess. Fancy a game of online chess? I’m always up for a challenge!
Swimming like there’s no tomorrow. My flip-flops and I are practically joined at the hip, I tell you! ;)
Or brushing up on languages. I’ve got German, English and Russian under my belt, and now I’m tackling Greek — opa! (That’s about all the Greek I know so far, but watch this space!)
WHAT MAKES AYIA NAPA MY SLICE OF HEAVEN?
And then there’s Ayia Napa. Oh, Cyprus! Aphrodite’s island has well and truly stolen my heart. The picture-postcard landscapes, the rich history, the mouthwatering grub — souvlaki, here I come!
Just when I think I’ve seen it all, this sun-soaked paradise throws another surprise my way. It’s like the gift that keeps on giving, I tell you!
