About Me

CURRENT MISSION

“Travel is fatal to prejudice, bigotry, and narrow-mindedness.” – Mark Twain

ABOUT ME

Hmm....actually in the moment I´m not so sure about myself! What do I want to do? Who am I? Which is my place in this world?
What I can say for sure is that you will always find me with a cup of coffee, a book or my knitting somewhere...
Beside questioning everything and anything I like talking, preferred while walking because I need to keep moving all the time! The endless conversations can come to the problem that there is no senselessness because even if you do something just to do a meaningless thing you´ve got a meaning behind it...It would be nice to hear your opinion on that!:)

I´m a student of Social Sience on the paper but since I´m not sure if this is right for me I prefer "General Studies" for the moment and try to broaden my horizon in all directions.

PHILOSOPHY

"So many people live within unhappy circumstances and yet will not take the initiative to change their situation because they are conditioned to a life of security, conformity, and conservatism, all of which may appear to give one peace of mind, but in reality nothing is more dangerous to the adventurous spirit within a man than a secure future. The very basic core of a man's living spirit is his passion for adventure. The joy of life comes from our encounters with new experiences, and hence there is no greater joy than to have an endlessly changing horizon, for each day to have a new and different sun."
— Chris McCandless

Music, Movies, and Books

A friend of mine asked me once: What are your "Life-Books"? In the very first moment I thought about books by my favorite authors like Thomas Mann or Heinrich Böll. After I thought a bit more about this wonderful question two books came to my mind: Into the Wild and Moby Dick!The awareness of life in this books deeply touched me!
I don´t want to pic a favorit music but songs by Pink Floyd, Bee Gees or Suzanne Vega always cheers me up!
I believe there are good movies out there but I can hardly sit down in front of the tv longer than for the news...
