Nicola, Mainz, Germany

I moved to Germany over 25 years ago after taking part in the Erasmus programme. Sheffield Hallam to Giessen. I came to Mainz for work (International Sales Director - wine business) 11 years ago. Originally I am from Runcorn, Cheshire and also lived in Warrington. Here I am 20km from Frankfurt- central to European travel an adventures. My brother moved here 6 years ago to build a new life. here I have many friends from all over Europe we share culture and friendship.
