About Me

CURRENT MISSION

to leave trace in the history of mankind ;))

ABOUT ME

I am an orientalist. Studying Asian countries and India in particular changed my way of thinking. I think western people have a lot of things to learn from the people of East - to relax, to enjoy the present moment of life.
