Overview
About Me
I am a person who always seeks to improve both on the spiritual, intellectual and physical level. I like meeting people with these characteristics, too.
Professionally, I seek to solve complex problems that stimulate creativity. I like both technology and stories to spark new ideas. I am convinced that in order to solve social, environmental and economic problems, we need to build new systems, especially the monetary system. This is possible as long as people learn more about money and how to design such systems. Creating this system is part of my personal mission.
I like to walk outdoors, mainly on beaches and mountains.
I like vegetarian food, even if I'm not a vegetarian. I have not eaten red meat for over 25 years. I like to cook and learn new recipes.
I do not smoke and sometimes I drink wine. I like silence to rest.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
I like to travel and to meet new people to change ideas, to hear their estories, to share knowledge, to build new projects.
