Overview
About Me
AWAY
I'm away August 11-29 so unfortunately, I won't be able to host that time.
CURRENT MISSION
To make deep connections, to share unique experiences with people
ABOUT ME
I am a geeky person. I really like playing board games, socializing, playing team sports at amature level, cooking and drinking tea. I love to eat.
I love to teach to people that want to learn and also love to learn myself. I have studied math, Latin, a little German, linguistics, nutrition and computer science! Right now I'm learning music theory aside from working.
PHILOSOPHY
I like to think that nothing is supposed to be in any specific way. I try to free myself from social conditioning and I also try not to judge others.

Music, Movies, and Books
I like semi-old classics (when it comes to movies and books). I like Tarkovskij, Kieslowski, Kaurismäki.. When it comes to books I like Murakami and Dostojevskij.
I have kind of a bad taste in music, I like what they play on the commercial radio, but I also enjoy classical music (especially Bach and Beethoven) and other timeless awesome music, like the Beatles.
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
I have seen proof for that there are statements that can neither be proved nor disproved (and I am talking about real math here, not religion :)
What I Can Share with Hosts
I know a lot about math and can show it in a new and beautiful way if would like to.
