About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To live a life after which I can die without too much shame.

ABOUT ME

I am slow, peaceful, smiling a lot and having a weird and dark sense of humour. Also tall and hairy and often too fat to fit into a cubicle ;)

PHILOSOPHY

We will die. Sooner than we expect it. We will die in pains and lonely - so we might even do something worthy before death arrives.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

In the morning, a naked (and sadly, male) couchsurfer sleeping in my bathtub after a long night out, only two centimeters away from being drown.
A backpacker girl drinking vodka in the gate of a church in a warm summer in England (free shadow and cold walls, you see).
I see people who lie without getting money for it and are amazed that their children are lying to them.
I have seen software working :)
