About Me

CURRENT MISSION

people all the time makes experiments...

ABOUT ME


I came to Transylvania (Ardeal/Erdély/Siebenbürgen) in order to live in a non-monocultural place. Under certain juristic and social condtitions minority being goes hand in hand with numerous human adventages. The countries having the dominant majority with a proportion of LESS than 50% or between 50-75% make up more than the half of world's countries (CIA, World Factbook, 2001).
As Erno Gall sociologist wrote: "I must give thanks to minority fate because as a last spiritual-moral resort saves us for downgrade".
