GROW's Michael celebrates his birthday and his father's birthday with an exploration of Germany, including a stop at Leipzig's F/Stop International Photography Festival

So 2009 brought about two mile stones... my 30th birthday and my father's 60th! Freakin' 90 years of Goesele. As we all know, life can be quite hectic and we can't be everywhere all the time....but some things you just have to re-celebrate properly when you have a chance to. Especially when you finally live on the same continent!

GROW's Michael Goesele revels in the challenge of applying his design skills to Finland's Evita

I am nearing the end of my first month in Helsinki, and what a month it's been! I've visited numerous countries, walked the halls of gorgeous museums, gone to the opera, drank the beers of Europe, and all the while meeting people who have opened my mind and eyes.

This doesn't even begin to scratch the surface as to what my professional experience has been like. Working on a new magazine launch from square one in a foreign market is astounding.
