Über mich

CURRENT MISSION

To learn more about the world and those who travel in her!

ABOUT ME

First of all, I'm an average person. I'm no philosopher, I don't teach economics and I haven't invented anything :-)
Anyway, I love learning about other cultures and travelling. I read up on each place I visit and try to learn in advance a number of phrases to be polite in the local language. History, linguistics, psychology and geography fascinate me but I am not as intellectual as you might imagine!
I think that it's so mind-broadening to learn about the human spectrum on this planet and getting to know others who are brought up in different cultural environments.
I try to visit at least one new country every year but have to fit it around my desk job!

PHILOSOPHY

Altruism transcends cultures, religions and tribalism :-)
