CURRENT MISSION

Looking for (intellectual, cultural, etc.) challenges

ABOUT ME

After three years in Prague, where I never quite felt at home or comfortable, I decided there was only one place I could see myself living: Berlin. Each time I was on my way back to Prague from one of my trips to Berlin, I never felt like I was going back home, but rather leaving it. So this summer I took a chance... and went 'home'. I've found a job here in the mean time (though honestly none I enjoy), met an invariably interesting crowd of people, and have come to the point where I'm defining more or less what I (do and do not) want to do here. Mainly: find a better job. Secondly: find ways to develop my guitar skills further. And anything else really, I'm open for new experiences and challenges, and am looking forward to meeting all you people out there!

PHILOSOPHY

It's better to regret the things you have done, not the things you haven't.
"Don't say no!" (from one of my favourite bands: Can)

兴趣

Music, history, philosophy, literature, cooking, languages, art, politics, sports (as in: doing, not watching) ...

I used to speak pretty good Russian. Through a combination of laziness, loss of interest and living in places where I had to learn other languages, it's gradually faded away. BUT I'm trying to change that now, so I'm really interested in meeting up with people from former CIS countries (or people who share my interest) so I can practice my Russian conversation skills.

教，学，和分享

I would like to teach you basic guitar skills, Dutch, French or English. Oh, and maybe I could teach some cooking.

I'm interested in Russian conversation practice, Breton language classes, and intermediate to advanced guitar classes.
