CURRENT MISSION

Living life with no regrets.

ABOUT ME

I run out of time during the day to do everything that interests me. There's always a tension between living for today and saving for tomorrow. Who knows if the tension will ever get resolved?

PHILOSOPHY

I try to minimize how much regret I'll have when I'm on my deathbed. I have strong preferences but believe that what I like (or how I think) doesn't have to be what others like (or how they think).

Eine tolle Erfahrung, die ich gemacht habe

That's why I'm traveling ^.^

Lehren, lernen, teilen

People who want to make money from you behave badly; other than that, everyone is basically a good person.
