About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Biking

ABOUT ME

I am an open minded person, like to meet different people from all over the world.
I like to philosophize with others, having a good glass of wine, laugh a lot.
I also like barbecueing very much, no matter which weather condition there is.
I like having a few beers with friends in a pub or in nature somewhere.
I love swimming in the Aare, the river of Berne. It's great!

PHILOSOPHY

A passport only shows which country you are from but not who you are.

We are only living on this planet but we are not owning it.
