ABOUT ME

I love people. I love the sun. I'm half German, half Russian, half Canadian, and there is room for many more ;)
What about me? I love to be proven wrong in my judgments. I love to realize again and again that our world inhabits the most amazing people.
I am very curious. I love to learn everything.

PHILOSOPHY

Ask me when I am 70, but as Hermann Hesse wrote: "Wisdom often looks like insanity", so even thene you probably won't get a good answer

Music, Movies, and Books

The Great Beauty ... this film just made me feel in an incredible way. Expressing so many things, which I can't find words for. Holy motors... Fight Club, TED speeches, ...
I love deep Russian music. A man playing on a guitar, singing with deep voice, marked by an intensely lived life, smoking and vodka. Also, I love Balcan Music. Rocking tunes with trompet do good to my soul. And obviously Nicaraguan revolutionary music. I like weird Shpongle music and German Punk rock, which is no punk rock any more.
Books:
I really love to read. There are a lot different books i deeply enjoyed: authors like Thomas Mann, Hermann Hesse, Remarque, Dostojewski (still do not read enough), but also books about economics, society, like Russia, just everything that gives me new perspectives on old stuff
and I am reading "The hero with a thousand faces" right now which opened up a whole new language to me.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Teach, Learn, Share

I kind of know how to make sandals out of wire and old car tire, share experiences about living in different cultures, some knowledge about tropical trees

I love learning. Just anything. From your outlook on life to your experiences, just learning to be more empathetic with more people. Your journey.
