About Me

I am pretty much of an another soul swimming in the fish bowl. I like music, books, a good movie/series. I enjoy drinking occasional beer or two with friends.
I have so far lived in 5 different cities in 3 different countries, and I have had the chance to meet amazing people during all these moving in/outs. I currently reside in Muenster, Germany and doing my PhD in Physics.
As I have started my PhD, I unfortunately don't have much free time, yet I am trying my best to enjoy the little I have. I am not really a party person, nor much of a night owl. But one of the things I like about myself is that, I can sleep through almost anything (Once slept through a 6.7 earthquake and my roommate thought something fell on my head and killed me- so, seriously).

Music, Movies, and Books

As for music, I listen to a wide range of genres, with a focus on progressive rock/metal. The two albums that have affected me the most are In Absentia of Porcupine Tree, and The Human Equation of Ayreon.

I love reading! I especially enjoy dystopian fiction, like the classics 1984 or Fahrenheit 451, or lesser known We, The Handmaid's Tale, Never Let Me Go... I also like fantasy and sci-fi, of course. I had been an avid Harry Potter fan when I was a kid, well, from when I was 8 until when I was 17, when the last book was released. My two favorite books, however, are A Pale View of Hills from Ishiguro and The Golem from Meyrink.

Movies! Well.. That's a tough one. I like Star Wars, Lord of The Rings (although the book is better)... My favorite TV show of all times would be Black Mirror, yet I am not sure how I feel about the last season or Bandersnatch yet...
