CURRENT MISSION

FIGHTING AGAINST MY JETLAG

ABOUT ME

I hate all this self-description stuff... anyway...
What do you have to know about me?
I'm addicted to black cloths, skulls, postcards and liquorice, but open for new things and everything that might be funny, interesting and a bit crazy!
In fact, there are people who think I'm crazy myself, but I believe that's just the normal grade of madness you need to live happily in this world...;-)

So, if you want to surf my couch you're very welcome! And if you host me I'll be very thankful... but be warned you do it at your own risk;-)!

PHILOSOPHY

"I want to be a cosmopolitan -
everywhere at home,
but even more important,
always and everywhere on the way." (E. von Rotterdam)

Interests

I'm also busy with figuring out the deeper meaning behind the following, central questions of my life:

Why do I collect postcards without having an idea what to do with them?

Why is it impossible to eat white chocolate without your clothes getting dirty (and I'm sure I'm not the only one wondering about that)?

Why can't I pronounce "Massachusetts" properly?

Why do I lose my umbrella always and everywhere?...

There are some more, but these are the ones I'm mainly interested in at the moment...

• photography
• dining
• chocolate
• bbq
• clothing
• reading
• traveling
• music
• outdoor activities
• paragliding
• languages

Music, Movies, and Books

So far I've read a lot of books. Unfortunately, some of them made me wondering why people wasted paper to publish them... anyway, most of them have been brilliant and I'm surprised again and again how deeply one can become absorbed in reading.
So, the list of books that I've enjoyed reading is quite long... it definitely includes some brilliant children books (e.g. everything by A. Lindgren), The Little Prince, some of Bill Bryson's books, some of Mankell's thrillers/novels, The Time Traveller's wife, The House of the Spirits, Paula... should I go on?

And: i love the Dr. House-Serie
