About Me

CURRENT MISSION

ABOUT ME

I am active. I love all kinds of running sports like soccer, ultimate frisbee or jugger but also hiking, canoeing and skiing.
Most people probably perceive me as unorganized but I prefer the term 'spontaneous'. If you ask me to hit a pub you get an immediate 'yes'. If that question refers three days into the future I'll probably forget.

PHILOSOPHY

Two definitions of higher nonsense:
1) Higher nonsense is not only if you are laughing nevertheless but also if you no longer know why.
2) Ah, well...
Schobert & Black

Music, Movies, and Books

The films and books I enjoy most have a dark and unexciting humour. I think "In China they eat dogs" is the best representative. However, I like movies and books in general, for example: Life is Beautiful, In Bruges, Wall-E or The Life of Brian. Regarding books I prefer authors like Douglas Adams, Heinrich Böll, Walter Moers or Tad Williams - to name a few.
Anyway, I laugh loudest when watching children's films :)

My taste of music goes from electronic over metal to classical. So basically everything as long as it satisfies the totally objective criterion: interesting.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Don't know if that falls under impressive but it had a lasting impression on me: walking with hundreds of like-minded through the streets of Edinburgh in the night of a 31st October dressed as Zombies.
