About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Find the Balance within the work-life-balance equation

ABOUT ME

Im an quite open minded person, spontaneaous, not-at-all-hesitant, smart (well some ppl told me, although I dont really believe it ;) ). Furthermore Im also straight forward and sometimes really sarcastic, so beware!

PHILOSOPHY

dont get mad at other people, just relax and think how much better it is to dont worry about some stuff.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Digested a heavy traffic accident, where I almost ended up in the wheelchair, and found again optimism in life =)

And - of course - traveling :D

Teach, Learn, Share

I dont really know what I can teach, I think my friends could answer this question better for me.
So for the moment, Im rather a student of life and people than a teacher.
