Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
YOU GO, YOU KNOW! and "TRY NOT TO BECOME A MAN OF SUCCESS BUT RATHER TO BECOME A MAN OF VALUE"
ABOUT ME
"Technical Data": I am Austrian by origin (from Innsbruck) and live in Berlin presently.
"Soft Data":
I am sociable. I like people and I am interested in other people´s lifes. There are so many different ways of living lifes and this fascinates me like crazy. I love listening to people and try to cherry-pick in a positive way.
I like to listen to stories and experiences and I am always happy to share mine.
PHILOSOPHY
YOU GO, YOU KNOW! (a little scrap of wisdom that was shared by a Vietnamese with me) - it is so damn simple that I only realized the full extend and meaning of these 4 words much later - THINK ABOUT IT!
NEVER REGRET! sounds easy, but it´s awfully difficult ... ooofff
SIMPLICITY - I like simplicity! in everything ... life, people, food, ideas, love ...

...nonetheless, I know my favourite food: PIZZA!

Teach, Learn, Share
**I would be happy to tell people what I see in them that they (probably) do not see - some kind of feedback to help others to understand themselves better - unveil blind spots ... can be very exciting and useful ...
**I can help and assist anyone that wants to see Belarus - one of the most special countries that Europe has to offer - I lived there for 2 years and have still tight relations to this beautiful country and the great city Minsk
**Generally, I have some experience in travelling through Eastern Europe (Russia, Belarus, Ukraine, Azerbeijan, Kazakhstan...)
Countries I’ve Lived In
Austria, Belarus, Germany, Hungary, Serbia, United States
