About Me

ABOUT ME

I'm an easy-going, open-minded, reliable university student (dentistry), who loves to travel and wants to explore the world as much as possible during lifetime, even though it's currently quite hard because of my studies, which take a quite a lot time and effort.

Aside my studies I'm working at a private orthodontal clinic.

I enjoy both partying and peaceful evenings at home, reading some good book, going jogging, watching a movie or smth like that. It's not unusual for me to get stuck in some philosophical or political discussion/debate for hours with a glass of wine or beer in my hand... oh and, by the way, I really cant stand any religious fanatics and racists/junkies + related idiots.

PHILOSOPHY

I believe there's no general meaning in life, except personally for each individual. For me the highest goal is to enjoy the life to the fullest, and that determines what kind of career, relationships and and lifestyle I will have in the long run, not vice-versa as I think most of the people live their life.

Politically I'm not very active, but bend towards the liberal side.
