      I grew up in the deepest Bavarian Forest close to the border to czech republic. Since
      ever old handcrafts are my big love and interest. When i visited the first time the
      glass factory i was so impressed by the place and the people working there. These
      many muscular men working with this filigree material. In this wonderful, but also
      hard place, where routine is the life-line leading through the night, I wanted to spend
      several nights and dive deeper.
