About Me

I'm just a traveller of both time and space... and I like Led Zeppelin a lot. Also I like progressive rock. Sometimes when I walk down the street I have those big expensive headphones on my head and I unleash my dance moves, much to amusement of the passerbys. It makes me a very happy person. I tried learning Spanish once but the only thing I know is "Yo cocino El cabalio". Might not be much, but works sometimes. I enjoy joking around with strangers in shopping centre lines and public transport.

I like to think that I am a free man. I try not to worry too much about the unavoidable in life, and instead focus on the small everyday interactions and try to make them unique. I share plenty of Immanuel Kant's philosophy on goodness. He says to treat others how you wish to be treated. No eye for an eye, rather - do good for the sake of it, regardless of whether circumstances justify it or not. I like to believe I am a good person. I used to do favours in order to gain something else in exchange. Nowadays if I need your support I'll ask for it. And I will offer mine regardless. At work my peers would get scrutinized for asking for help with their job. To me it's better to ask a hundred times if you are not sure, than to make an error because you did not want to ask in fear of being shunned for it.

Music, Movies, and Books

Music: I'm hugely into progressive rock. King crimson, Yes, Pink Floyd, Camel, Genesis. I'm a sucker for 10 minute instrumentals, extended intros and outros, creative solos, sounds mixing in and out of the composition, rhythm changes, poetic lyrics, deep meanings, powerful singers and Jimmy Page.

Other than prog rock I enjoy Franz Ferdinand a lot. The best concert I've been at for sure.

Book: R.A. Salvatore is my teenage idol for writing Drizzt. Very powerful book to me at the time, about friendship, morality, struggles of life and finding happiness within. I used to choose that nickname in every online profile, but I quickly and much to my disappointment realized that I cannot be THE Drizzt. There will always be imposters.

Movie: Nolan, Tarantino. I like drama over comedy. I enjoy masterful act. One of my all time favourites would be Al Pacino in the Scent of a Woman.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

When I was younger I could make lotus with my legs and then stand on my head with legs still in lotus. Now my skills have dropped off significantly... quite frankly nothing amazing out here.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can make tasty spaghetti. While tasting I'll share a cool fact about your favourite band.
