ABOUT ME

I love spending time outdoors, cycling and hiking are my preferences, and for a while there was paragliding. Needless to say, I love traveling, which is in my opinion best done on a bike. Minimalism counts: leave all redundant stuff behind with no attachment, travel light, live simply!

When I'm not outdoors, I'm behind my computer, usually learning about things that interest me, or developing software. I love the on-line lecture sites like Coursera and Khan Academy. Recently I've been fascinated by Bitcoin.

As for socializing, I prefer a short walk in the park to a drink in a bar. I don't mind a beer in a pub, of course. Recently, I've been an early riser, though I can easily adapt to a more nocturnal biorhythm occasionally.

PHILOSOPHY

Don't change the world, change yourself.

Omnia mea mecum porto -- not just when traveling.

And I believe honesty is the best rule of thumb of them all. Seriously.
