CURRENT MISSION

Simplicity

ABOUT ME

I am more and more discovering that I like simple things: Just sitting and staring, accepting people as they are, laughing and loving, eating together, dreaming, sleeping.

Before returning to Cologne -- where I am teaching at the University -- I was lecturing German Literature and Linguistics at the University of Malta for almost five years. Besides I am involved in theater and literary projects as I love everything that has to do with arts, especially creative writing.

PHILOSOPHY

"We must consider Sisyphus as a happy man" (Albert Camus)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I walked through the beautiful Peloponnese in Greece, feeling like Socrates, Achilles and Perikles stoned by the drugs of life: lights, love, food, poetry and history!

Teach, Learn, Share

I like social, creative people, kind of easy going but not superficial and shallow. I am a curious person and I like to learn new things, for instance juggling by walking backwards or learning some Tibetian phrases...
