About Me

CURRENT MISSION

I'll keep my mind open and listen to my heart.

ABOUT ME

I was born in a small town in Upper Austria. After eight years of working experience, I went to Vienna to dedicate my time to African literature, mainly of the only African Spanish-speaking country, Equatorial Guinea. I enjoy writing short stories, poems, about arts and cultures, and I like presenting my radio programes and podcasts on Vienna's independent radio station "Radio Orange". One of the podcasts is about traveling.

PHILOSOPHY

Until the colour of a man's skin is of no more significance than the colour of his eyes, Me say war. [Bob Marley]

Music, Movies, and Books

„In my teens music really meant the world to me. This wasn't a conscious thing, it just worked out that way. Back then you saved up, chose carefully and squeezed everything you could out of every record you bought. There's too much music in my life nowadays.“ (David Kitt, The black and red notebook)
