About Me

I am an eternal learner, open to new paths and disciplines, and a keen reader – the older I get, the more I question whether I do actually become wiser.

I have lived in a number countries and diverse cultures. I appreciate transcultural experiences and transitions, and find intercultural encounters inspiring.

In the past, I was a good sportsman. Now, I still try to exercise regularly and lead an active life. Lately I came to love and find serenity in water and swimming. 

Exercise gives me resilience, good food gives me pleasure. I enjoy cooking and do it fairly well. I love dancing, but do not dance well. I listen to music, my favourite is Mahler.
