CURRENT MISSION

leave something behind on this planet to make it more sustainable for people to live on it

ABOUT ME

I am a careful person. On new grounds, be it activities/terrain/people, I take small steps to watch, analyse, evaluate. Still, sometimes a judgement has to be revised again. Once trust has built up, I can give heartfully and with pleasure, and be quite fast and honest with my actions.

PHILOSOPHY

Be a leaver instead of a taker
(See "Ishmael" or "The Story Of B" by Daniel Quinn)

Still waiting for my verification postcard.
