About me
Guide
Author
Political Scientist
Dr. phil.
born 1974
​
I have been living in Brussels with my family since 2004 and the city is now my home. Since 2016 I work as a guide. Previously, as a political scientist with a doctorate, I taught at universities in Trier and Leuven.
​
In 2023 my first book was published: Monumental: Macht und Architektur in Brüssel. I'm currently writing two more books: Summer forays through Brussels and Brussels: Portrait of a European City.
​
And since I can't seem to get enough of Brussels, I've also decided to walk every street in the city. I have now walked over 1,900 km through Brussels on over 390 walks.
