ABOUT ME

Generally speaking, I guess I am the curious type and love to debate while having a good coffee (or a beer).
I find listening to music or making it myself to be a great thing. Although I get along with myself quite well I hate writing about myself, so I will stop here and you're gonna have to ask if you want to know more..

PHILOSOPHY

Try to find things that are interesting, beautiful and completely useless. Then learn that they are actually worth living for. Otherwise I think I am the secular humanist type of guy.
