About Me

CURRENT MISSION

diving into subway stations and unknown places, taken photos of them

ABOUT ME

I'm an uncomplicated and diverse person. Professionally, I am engineer. I'm especially interested in power technology and everything that rotates ;) Besides technology I am interested in people, cultures, arts, history, architecture and music.
I love the nature, like to go out to the sea, the mountains, the woods...

PHILOSOPHY

it's that i don't just have that one and only philosophy. but i want to try to describe it anyway: open up your mind by meeting people and seeing new places, keep smiling and have a good attitude to life. Every word of any language you learn, every place you travel is a priceless experience for life. trying to absorb everything like a sponge, but also giving back experience and support to those who need it. so live your life fully - you most probably have just one. in Chile and Spain there is a good carpe-diem-saying: "El que al mundo vino y no tomá vino, a que mierde vino?" (it means: "who came to this world without having vine, what the hell he came for?")

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

One of the most compelling moments during my travels was in Chile, when I went with a small group of people to the Atacama Desert and we shared some Patatoe Chips and Pisco (the original Chilean Liquor made of lemons) while the sun was setting on the horizon... I felt totally as a very small part of something that is much bigger then me, then us, then automobiles, smartphones, then any city or building...

Teach, Learn, Share
