ABOUT ME

I'm pretty much interested in the sence of life, spending time with my son (experience a new speed of life;) discussions with people about everything, playing music on the violin (from classical music up to jazz), watching movies (regular visitor of the berlinale), doing multimeda stuff (at least to earn money to travel)... to be continued

PHILOSOPHY

SEI einfach. Erkenne dich selbst und du wirst erkannt, liebe dich selbst und du wirst geliebt. Höre auf deine innere Stimme und du wirst Zufriedenheit gespickt mit Glücksmomenten erleben;)
