About Me

I'm a curious person, a good listener and sensitive towards others.

I have a strong urge to live, which makes me want to try new things, new foods, new hobbies, etc. that are not harmful for others. Make a suggestion, I'm usually all in unless your suggestion has the risk to hurt somebody.

I read a lot and I'm analytic by profession, but I try to avoid that on my free time :). Living in the moment is more important.

On that account, I just love how sand feels under my toes and how mountains are so full of cracks and rubble, yet so smooth and strong when touched. I've learned to breath with the sea.

Too much social hybris does eventually wear me down - I know when I need a break, so don't worry about that. Let's appreciate our limits.
