Music, Movies, and Books

I listen to a variety of music from electronic beats to jazz to drum 'n bass to hardcore to funk to rap to rock – needs to be well made and fit my current mood. Love to share good music!

So many good movies.
Currently need to watch: "Victoria"
Last one I really loved: "Gueros"

Same with books! Lately loved a novel by Olga Grjasnowa titled "Der Russe ist einer, der Birken liebt"

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Today's coffee in the morning was pretty amazing.

Teach, Learn, Share

Can share a smile and a good conversation, my view on the world, some photography skills, how to throw a frisbee in at least three ways...
