About Me

Traveling until 21.06.

CURRENT MISSION

Make one of those fantastic "beer ideas" concrete ! More seriously, become more relaxed about life and enjoy it as much as possible. And after my PostDoc, starting a business would be awesome.

ABOUT ME

Friends, cooking, eating, meeting strangers, sports, computers, books,... that's what I like. I'm generous and a bit to much excited sometimes.

PHILOSOPHY

Live is live, so enjoy it.

Festina lente !
