I dedicated the first part of my life to a high pressure career. Then it was time for a change.
I am now living on a little farm in the middle of nowhere with my wife and kids (two teenage boys). I like to learn and do new things. I like to cook and bake (I bake sourdough bread for a farmers market). I like to grow as much of my own food as I can.
I am worried about where the world is going, but I try to stay positive and to do whatever I can to change it for the better.

Musik, Filme und Bücher

I like watching independent movies that are outside the main distribution channels. Books are dangerous for me; when I get into a good book I get totally absorbed by it and nothing else gets done. Music? Yes all kinds, classic, modern, I'm just terrible with remembering the artists names.

Eine tolle Erfahrung, die ich gemacht habe

I had the opportunity to visit the Galapagos islands and I was blows away by what I saw.

Lehren, lernen, teilen

Every day I learn something new, and if anyone wants a piece of what I gathered, I am happy to share. Life should not be a competition but a journey together.
