One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I have seen Cherenkov lights. The poor man's northern lights ^^

Teach, Learn, Share

I have quite impressive Korean houseman skills:
I can teach you how to make KimChi and various other Korean dishes.

If you have question relating to Thermodynamics, I am always happy to help.

My current short term goal is to learn some Romanian. Apart from that I am eager to learn about pretty much anything new.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I would say that I am a pleasent person to have around. Some people even go as far as to state that I can be funny sometimes.
So you will have a lot of fun with me and I love to discuss stuff. So if there is anything that you want to thoroughly discuss with someone opinionated, I am the person for you.
