About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Is there life in my aquarium?

ABOUT ME

I love the great outdoors, be it climbing, mountaineering, hiking, or biking.
I enjoy a good conversation, preferably accompanied by some good wine and even better food. I like travelling, and meeting other people and enjoy the odd adventure (given that I get sufficient sleep).

Interests

I'm interested in ideas, and I enjoy to exchange them. I'm fascinated by the million ways people decide to live their lives, and by the spectacular diversity of life-styles this has produced.

Music, Movies, and Books

I am a great fan of Wes Anderson movies, and have taking a liking in Yugoslavian rock music from the late 1980s.
