About Me

CURRENT MISSION

do stuff

ABOUT ME
At the moment, I live in a shared house in the woods. Sometimes I talk a lot, sometimes not. Some (or maybe only me) would consider myself as domestic, although I enjoy visiting people and travelling. For various reasons I try to avoid animal products.

PHILOSOPHY

in short: to respect the human rights and to be responsible, and not always take life and myself too serious ;)

I especially like the tv-series „broad city“ , "the mighty boosh", „tim and eric awesome show, great job!" a lot.
some music by the beatles, the fall, velvet underground, goldene zitronen, tortoise, david bowie, ki sap, mayra andrade, zaz, os novos baianos, miles davis, mussorgsky, debussy, prokofiev and many others.. I love graphic novels, some of my favorites are by franquin, moebius, boucq, prado, felipe, moore, schuiten, peeters, fil, mahler, marijpol, matsumoto, tan, yamamoto, iwaaki and many others
