About Me

To see the world with unclouded eyes

ABOUT ME

According to my friends, i am open minded, easy going and calm person.
Generally i spend my time at home, at work or at university.
I got married in May 2014.
I have an start up company.
i like to meet new people, share and learn from them. I have good friends all over the world.
I like to talk about history, since my father was an historian teacher.
I like yoga and meditation.
sometimes i am very busy with experiments.
i have a huge collection of films. Not so much Hollywood. But of course I like star wars, lord of the rings.
I like traveling.
I am a funny person, however, I am not a person looking for fun. Not the "Lets live today like the last day" person.

PHILOSOPHY

I believe this world still have a chance without humans :).
I do not like money transfer like economy.
Helping people is important in this world.
Most of the humans have eyes, few see.
Being good as much as you can is important.
