Meet an #empowerman: Paul (27)

​Every month we invite you to meet #empowermen .We ask them to tell us about who they are and why they choose VIRTŪ -  what we get back is amazing. 
This time we met Paul, 27, about to move to Glasgow. He is very special for us as he was our very first model for VIRTŪ. This is what he told us:
“Hey, I am Paul. Born and raised in Germany, I studied business administration in Berlin and worked for the German foreign ministry, the debating magazine The European, as well as the German Africa Foundation. When I am serious I am interested in global development, future politics and international exchange. Apart from that I love colorful paintings, absurd animal stories and standing in the middle of some mountains. 
I have been fascinated by the many different forms life takes on this planet from an early age. I would sit behind my grandparent’s sofa looking at atlases and old National Geographic issues for hours - dreaming about crowded hot places and windy, rocky shores. Surely, I reckon, I was quite a lucky lad for living in an environment that enabled me to freely choose what I wanted to do with my life. My supportive upbringing also made me realize that one could never change your own life or others' lives for the better all by yourself. You need assistance, and other people need your help, to succeed in life. This is kind of how I understand the Perfect Shirt: it is a mutual assisting tool. It enables me to boost opportunities in a place where there should be more. I guess this is how our world should work: creating choices by making choices!”
