things that keep me busy and alive: spending time in the nature, climbing, cooking, reading books & different science stuff, drawing, handicrafting, travelling ......, and of course having a beer with friends, discussing anything from utterly serious topics to absolutely unimportant random bullshit ;-)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

second day of the kepler track in New Zealand: had been woken up after a bitterly cold night by the noisy sounds of the keas, those very intelligent mountain parrots... i played with them in the morning light divulging the beautiful scenery...with the world around us covered by the first snow of the year...won´t ever forget that morning!

Teach, Learn, Share

I believe everyone has something to share...
but two things come straight to my mind: languages and food recipes! The two most important ways to discover the world :-)

I'm very interested in learning Spanish and improving my French (but as well Arabic, Turkish, Nepali, ... )
I also love to learn new cooking recipes, so if you can cook, that's wonderful!
