CURRENT MISSION

being either one of the populus trees in front of my window - or the wind

ABOUT ME

reading a lot, studying philosophy, travelling, hiking in the woods, trekking in the countryside, playing soccer on sand-courts, sitting around in berlin with klappstuhlclub.de, swimming in lakes, being francophil, playing board- and card-games, cooking delicious meals and eating them afterwards - or just eating them...
