CURRENT MISSION

I'm going to stay in Edinburgh

ABOUT ME

With humor I try to face the waves of destiny. I travel much - especially for work - and feel like a modern adventurous nomad, without properly having ever decided to be that way. I find my rest in arts, literature and philosophy. Maybe a kind of mixture between an intellectual and a rocket. After all I could manage live with more calmness and in a more secure way. But: this is how I like it!

PHILOSOPHY

My point of view is rhater conservative-catholic - bearing in mind that this might not sound very cool for this plattform. However, I don't care wheter one is religious, atheist, none of both, punk, vegetarian, or a transsexual deejay. What counts is the sincere quest for the truth, the good and beautiness.
