Raphael Fellmer

[1] He is an activist, who lived without money to raise awareness [2] and makes use of surplus of the consumer society.

Later he started to get food that was approaching or past best-before date and that the shops were not able to sell.

Fellmer himself lives with no money,[2] his wife uses the equivalent of around $280 per month (2013) from savings and a government child subsidy when she needs to pay for health care or food for their children.
