About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Working most of the time, unfortunately. Apart from that, google "effective altruism."

ABOUT ME

I studied philosophy and now work with the primary aim of giving money to charitable causes. I'm originally German but have been living in the UK for the last 10 years.

PHILOSOPHY

Slow down, Spacko. Zieh dich von der Tanzfläche des Lebens zurück in die Lounge.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Mexico, Cuba, Thailand, Sri Lanka, South Afrika. Last summer a friend and I went Interrailing through Italy, France and Spain, and as I hadn't heard of couchsurfing yet, we slept rough half the time which turned out to be great fun. However, I still appreciate the occasional roof over my head.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can probably teach you some German, and I can tell you something about a few topics in analytical philosophy.

It would be great if somebody could teach me more cooking skills.
