CURRENT MISSION

To visit every bar in the world - at least once

ABOUT ME

I think I am a very easy-going guy and probably the least judgemental and most peaceful person since Mahatma Gandhi. I am not so interested in nature, my focus is on people and on a vivid city life.

PHILOSOPHY

I try to live my life as agreeable as possible, and in the mean time try to be understanding and supportive for everyone else. Maybe I can illustrate that even better with a quote by Bertrand Russell that recently struck me:

"If there were in the world today any large number of people who desired their own happiness more than they desired the unhappiness of others, we could have paradise in a few years."

Traditional Austrian dresses.

That Germans are actually rather friendly.

Streets in Lisbon.

"Look Left" - "Look right" - "Mind the gap"

Enseña, aprende, comparte

I think much hapiness can be derived from authentic interest in other people - I am myself still a student in that field, but I try my best.
