About Me

CURRENT MISSION

ABOUT ME

Too bad, theres no wikipedia article about this guy - so heres a few words of me about me:

Open mindedness is the trait that first comes in mind when thinking about myself (not meaning that I have reached the goal of completely achieving it).

I'm not really straight forward outgoing at first sight (you could say shy) but I'm really interested in other people and fast to like someone. I would love to share stories and knowledge. There are soooo many things to experience!

I am easy going, i eat everything(except for endangered species) and enjoy drinking in good company!

Some say I am quite rational and a bit nuts.

PHILOSOPHY

pretty nice to be living

Music, Movies, and Books

I love movies that make me laugh or ones that surprise me and make me think about stuff. (This is pretty much hit by most of the Japanese movies i've seen so far.)

My music taste is rather borad. I'm just not that into really commercial music.

The books I enjoy most are sc-fi novels and early 20th century literature.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

and I made some self-experimentation "motto weeks".

It was basically one year with each week living under some self imposed constraints (e.g. one week no speaking). It was a great experience. There is one (incomplete) blog a about these weeks that a friend of mine made for me.

Its in German but Google translate helps i guess.
