ABOUT ME

I am sometimes calm sometimes crazy guy who loves to travel. I like reusing of old stuff and nature friendly way of living. I'm a professional archaeologist interested in research on human-environmental relationship in the past.

book-lover, tea-lover, fresh air-lover, mountain-lover, urban-gardener, cyclist

I usually enjoy people and environments free of racism, sexism, queerphobia or hate in general.

PHILOSOPHY

"If you are to well connected, you stop thinking. The glamour, the immediacy, the tendency to absorb other peoples's thoughts, interrupt the deep abstraction required to find your own way." G. Monbiot, Guardian

Work hard on whatever you'll enjoy!
