Hey people!
I am new to this forum and wanted to introduce myself.
I am 27yrs old, studying Roman Provincial Archaeology, work for an excavation company and the German Archaeological Institute and live in Offenbach at the river Main in the state of Hessen in Germany.
I share my flat with my lovely (although not interested in ants) Girlfriend and my babies.
One is human and eight weeks old - the other ones are two Canary birds, a Novomessor cockerelli colony, a Messor barbarus colony, a Lasius Niger colony and two Notoncus sp. Queen's founding.
In my free time I love to visit museums, exhibitions, zoos, or to go hiking.
That's all about me - if you have questions, feel free to ask!

Go to the ant, you sluggard; consider its ways and be wise! It has no commander, no overseer or ruler, yet it stores its provisions in summer and gathers its food at harvest. -Proverbs 6: 6-8
