CURRENT MISSION

to keep my smileys always smiling (:

ABOUT ME

During the day I'm dedicated researcher of eco-friendly energy sources for the world of tomorrow (more precisely, polymer solar cells), but after work I like to get lost in a artsy maze of old and newly-found hobbies, such as lullabying my piano, painting out the impressions of the day, writing small stories, trying to freeze cool details in time with my camera, or just burn some extra-energy by climbing boulders and windsurfing around the Alssund.
I never miss the chance to explore new places, and while at it I enjoy visiting modern art galleries, jazz clubs, (puppet) theatres, and sampling exotic cuisines (ethiopian and persian are fighting the battle for first place at the moment :) )
