About Me

CURRENT MISSION

planning a world bike tour, learning new aspects of life

ABOUT ME

I'm not good in self descriptions, think, friends are the better choose in this case. But I'd describe myself as an open and humble student, always trying to make the best of the time I have. Sometimes focusing on too much things the same time is a little vice of me.
I'm also not the most extroverted guy, but have a passion for good conversations and also an eye for the smaller hidden things in life.

PHILOSOPHY

"What you give is what you get." And "Don't dream your life. Live your dream!"

My experience is, that many frontiers in life are self-made. I like to try to bit the bullet whenever I can.

Music, Movies, and Books

There are too much genres of music I like. Found my special passion for Progressive Rock/Metal (Dream Theater! Porcupine Tree, Zappa etc...) and other types of complex music. I'm generally quite open in questions of music. So depending on situation, I also like Electro/Psy Trance, Flamenco and a lot of classical artists.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Making a lot of bike tours through europe was an overwhelming experience in many things. However, europe isn't the world and just driving thousand of kilometers not the best way to learn from different cultures.
So I decided to make a world bike tour after studying, including the support of humanity projects.
