Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
When I was younger I was told you can't always do what you want, but when I grew up I realized it's the only thing you have to do.
ABOUT ME
I like dogs and don't mind pet-sitting a dog once in a while.
I like books and enjoy re-reading some of them.
I like to sing, at work, at home, when I'm happy or sad, when in church or most of all in a karaoke bar.
PHILOSOPHY
I don't believe in death but I look forward to it as an interesting experience.

Music, Movies, and Books
Books: "Night and day" by Virginia Woolf, "the waves" also Virginia, "Jane Eyre" by Charlotte Brontë, "the Cyberiad" by Stanislaw Lem and "Bhagavad-Gita", oh and of course the book that changed my life when I was thirteen years old "Tao according to Puh" by Benjamin Hoff
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Soleil Noir, total eclipse of the sun north of Paris in summer of 1999. The whole world went dark. Birds stopped singing, temperature dropped and the wind increased. Lying on my back in the middle of a field, looking up at the silver corona lining the black shape of the moon, I felt like an insect on a cosmic billiard ball.
If you get the chance to see a total eclipse, don't miss it.
Teach, Learn, Share
I'd like to learn more about the stuff that makes the world go round instead of square
What I Can Share with Hosts
My good mood, my singing, some cooking skills and hopefully some wisdom.
