Hi Tanja, could you please introduce yourself to our readers?
Hello Thailand Magazine readers,
my name is Tanja Reuß. I am 50 years old and come from Germany. To be precise, from Schweinfurt, a city known for its international bearing companies. This is also where I was born.
By profession I am a technical specialist and work in an X-ray laboratory for rolling bearings. In my spare time I am often hiking or riding my mountain bike. Drone photography is another new hobby of mine and in addition, snorkeling equipment is mandatory on every vacation.
But my big passion is traveling, preferably to Asia and here most of all to Thailand.
I wish you a lovely peaceful day!
Tanja Reuß

Koh Phangan is for me personally my dream island, here I find great beaches, delicious Thai food, power places to practice yoga and always meet nice people from all over the world.
Which place / destination in Thailand is still on your wish list to visit?
Koh Lipe, the underwater world should be great.
