A private threshold

What brings you to ALMAE?

A few personal lines are enough to begin. Manuel reads your inquiry himself and considers whether a next step together makes sense.

Your first message

Read the eligibility guidance first. If the setting could suit you, briefly tell us why the immersion speaks to you now and which practical questions you have. You do not need to present yourself in a particular way or make a decision yet.

Three simple starting points.

Please write in English or German. A brief message is enough; you do not need to send a CV or detailed personal records.

  1. How may we address you?Your name or preferred form of address, and your preferred language.
  2. What draws you here now?One or two non-sensitive sentences about your interest in ALMAE.
  3. What would you like to clarify?For example, a practical question about the setting or an approximate time frame, if you have one.

Please do not send medical records, diagnoses, identity or financial documents, or intimate life-history details in your first email. Personal details are considered later through an agreed channel.

An inquiry is non-binding and does not reserve a place. Acceptance, a written agreement and payment are separate steps.

  2. Manuel reviewsWe consider fit and open questions personally. A conversation may be arranged where useful.
  3. You decideAfter explicit acceptance, you receive the offer and terms. You review and accept them before ALMAE separately confirms the contract.
  4. Invoice and paymentFollowing contract confirmation, you receive the invoice or agreed payment information.
