Living in Dumaguete Philippines

ABOUT ME

very friendy person
open minded
of course not a boring man
have been a host in former years for people from China and Ghana, organized by a German network
also have been twice a guest in homestay at New Delhi and Tokyo for 1 or 2 weeks
Its important to know I am a vegetarian since long time, but not a strict vegan. I tolerate other habits.

PHILOSOPHY

as a former highschool teacher at social science (and music) I used to have a special view on my own country and also foreign societies and other social systems, currently living in the Philippines.
