CURRENT MISSION

Continue to explore co-operative creativity, new e-business models and live off of my writing

ABOUT ME

Live with my daughter (13) and son (10) every other week. I love cooking, drinking tea, having discussions about politics, ideology, religion, philosophy, entrepreneurship and learning more about people and their backgrounds. I work as a consultant with the world as my workspace, currently in the local geographical location. I also own a publishing house and regularly publish books.

I love meeting new people and hearing how they view and experience life and the world around us.

PHILOSOPHY

We are an interlocked web of individuals, who only in relation to one another make sense. A single strand in a web is pointless until it connects to something. Then it has a point, a meaning.

Music, Movies, and Books

Music: I enjoy most non-mainstream music (metal and its variations (opera, fantasy, new, thrash and so on), rock, punk, ebm, synth, goth). I've also been known to dig more mainstream music from time to time (especially when we're partying!)

Movies: Prefer horror, sci-fi and drama movies, but I enjoy and consume all kinds of movies.

Books: Fantasy and sci-fi with a touch of horror. Personal development and philosophy are high on my read-list too.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Roadtrip of most of Europe during one summer. Visiting both coasts of the US and a bunch of cities in between. The birth of my two children. Rebuilding my life.

Teach, Learn, Share

Author. Publisher. Personal Development. Leadership. Entrepreneurship. Co-creativity. E-business. Emergent business models.

Need help in any of these areas, feel free to ask me. I'm open to sharing and a constant exchange of ideas. I believe in the human potential for co-operative and creative power.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Free Wifi, access to our backyard, there is a lake with sandy beach within 2 minutes from where I live. I can do general guidance to good places to visit, nice experiences to have and do introductions if you're staying for a while.
