About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Ireland

ABOUT ME

I have two great loves in my life: Games and music
Music: Being my primary time consumer for many years, this field never stops being meaningful to me. Whether it is getting to know new pieces, performing, playing with others or teaching, music is a bottomless well.

Games: Games in general and board games in particular is something I'm always enthusiastic about, and that never tires me. I usually always have a small size game like "No Thanks" or "Pick a Pig" in my pocket whereever I go. Strategy games like Dominion or Blokus are my favourites, and my collection counts 150 games. A good game should be challenging whether you are an expert or beginner, and should also be possible to play together for people on different levels. Games are a good social activity, and also a nice way to meet new friends.

My third love is expanding my horizons. That includes both doing things I'm good at, and trying out things I'm not good at. I get a kick out of improving in any area and learning new things. I think life is a lot about self development, and that the possibilities for exploration is endless, both locally and in the world.

PHILOSOPHY

Have fun, and spend your time on things that matter.

Musicals! Like Wicked, Rent, The Book of Mormon. I watch a few TV-series with great entusiasm, like Dexter and A Game of Thrones. I read some manga, and I keep up to date with the latest chapter on Naruro and Bleach.

Active travelling is amazing. My favourite destination so far is Vietnam. A recent 50m bungy jump goes high up on the list of awesome things done!
