Hi, I'm Chris and I live in Kassel since last year. Since then I am very interested in Bergpark Wilhelmshöhe and the history of the city. For this reason, I would like to share my knowledge with you. Apart from that I like to get to know new cultures, I like traveling and I am especially interested in people, cities and their geographical development.

I'm waiting at the "Herkules, Kassel" stop (in front of the visitor center) with a hat
