CURRENT MISSION

moving to the US...

ABOUT ME

My current hobby is lawn mowing. But actually do I neither have a lawn nor a mower.

Just finished my PhD thesis about the Higgs Boson. Now I should look for a position...
Besides that, I mostly do photography, sleeping, drinking coffee or beer or wine (coffee for mornings, the rest for evenings).

I can:
- cook curry or italian pasta
- give an unfounded opinion about everything
- juggle with burning chainsaws (but only when nobody is watching)
- make you laugh, scream, sleep, run, relaxed, warm, focused or drunk

I grew up in Lucerne. (which is by many tourists considered to be paradise on earth...) I spent half a year in paris (which I think is paradise on earth), another half year in chicago and half a year in basel. I travelled 40 coutries (yes, I‘m counting them...) and now I live in Zurich.

generally I suck at:
- getting up early
- being patient
- shoe shopping
- filling out personal descriptions on couch surfing

visited 40 states (17.7%)Create your own visited map of The World

PHILOSOPHY

I'll write a book about that when I'm retired...
