About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Getting to know this CS thingy by participating in it as much as I can

ABOUT ME

I hope they would say something like: Talkative, open minded, empathic, skeptical (on a healthy level) and idealist.

PHILOSOPHY

I consider myself lucky and privileged to have good health, a job that I like and friends that I love and care about. Not everybody has that luxury, or even a roof over their heads nor three large meals of food a day. Because of this, and the fact that we as humans actually get happier by giving than by taking, I try to give as much as I can.

I volunteer for the Red Cross helping teenagers that can't get help at home with their homework. I am constantly trying to find good life-improving projects to sponsor on crowdfunding sites such as Kickstarter and Indiegogo. I am also interested in developing more efficient ways to grow food, such has hydroponics. That's why there is a Window Farm buzzing in my living room window. :)
