I can talk and listen a lot and I live to enjoy life.

Music, Movies, and Books
Impossible to name a favourite book, but let it suffice to mention some of my favourite authors: Herman Hesse, Haruki Murakami, Paulo Coelho, Charles Bukowski..
I love baroque, folk and ethnic music and one of my favorite right now is Yann Tiersen (you may associate with the wonderful music from the movie Amelie).
Some of my favorite movies: Cinema Paradiso, Schindler's list, The pianist, Forrest Gump, Amelie, La Vie en Rose, Modigliani...
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Well, I've spent my fair amount of time camping on polar glaciers on Svalbard and in Antarctica, been in Greenland too. More recently, I've been traveling alone in Russia several times, been riding camels in the desert of both Mongolia and Iran, done humanitarian work in a remote mountain region of Afghanistan. I think these are my most special experiences so far.
Teach, Learn, Share
Hm.. I can share with you some tricks that can help you take better photos or make good Italian food. Fancy?
I'm curious about life and cultures and will be open for anything you may have to teach or share (languages, food, music, whatever!).
