About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Get to the moment when I can work on serious assessments influencing the condition of the living on earth, and make it my profession.

ABOUT ME

I'm positive geezer, almost a graduate looking for worldwide opportunities to help solve world problems (sustainable development related to advanced ecological-economics).
I am not very good at assessing myself. But at glance I cen write what could my friends say? Once crazy, spontaneous, now more the adult type - balanced, reliable, calm. Love to contemplate the moment and have a serious philosophical conversation beginning with 'what if'... Probably my friend would depreciate the level of my sense of humour, but I am full of hope that every other new joke I'll try to say we'll finally be the one. For now, still waiting for the success. I have done a backpacking gap year to Australia and SE Asia 2 years ago, and fulfilled now looking in travels for a higher purpose, hopefully related with my professional goals.

PHILOSOPHY

Go forward whatever it takes, cause even when it looks impossible its your destiny. Once I loved the Paulo Coelho quote:
'when you desire something so deeply, the whole world will act secretly, so you can accomplish your goal.'
But now I'd rather sentence mystery of this one from Richard Feynman 'what is the matter, don't bother. What is bother, doesn't matter'

Music, Movies, and Books

There are so many movies I like that there is not enough space here to write it down. But some of the titles include Star Wars
, Eagle vs Shark,
Princess Mononoke, the aquatic life of Steve Zissou,

From music I favour the band - Too many Zooz lately, above soul, jazz and classic music playlists. I really admire brass music as the energy giving factor, when I need chill I'd rather listen to mix of electronic ambient with slow instrumental music. But when it comes to night out I'd surely won't refuse techno party.

Recently I am an active reader of Ecological Economics journals interlaced with world environment reports, some legal documents and finally... Yes I almost forgot the pleasure coming from a lecture of a good novel or philosophical - existence bibliography, once filling my free time.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Hitchhiking 6000km through desert? Diving with sharks? Moving glowing phytoplankton at full moon in warm waters of Koh Tao? Jumping of the 15m clip in Sardinia? Making a tattoo in a Hindu temple somewhere I didn't even know? There are many more, which I'll enroll with pleasure during our face to face conversation. Everything is about the moment, let it be.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can share my knowledge about food and drinks, I used to know how to Flair, probably still can show few tricks. I can share stories about ecological ways and my beloved ocean's, and personal travels. I also can teach basics of languages i already know, and I am eager to learn more. I can also explain how to optimize hitchhiking. And i can always have a discussion about life :)

What I Can Share with Hosts

Cooking, talking, giving ideas, inspiring. If
