I must have always had The Story Hunter in me. I always knew it would be an uphill battle finding out and answering my internal question. Where do I belong?
I learnt that having an eleven-letter surname that originated from Prussia/Poland/Germany was going to stop me initially. This was because of the ‘Iron Curtain’.

Anyone who wanted to do historical searches in this part of Europe was going to come to a dead end. So because of this, I’m sure others would feel the same as me and always felt that I didn’t belong.
