Descrição

Just returned to Europe from a 10-and-a-half-month adventure in North America (Canada-US-Mexico).

I am a techie by profession and have been coding for video game engines. Just over a year ago, I lost my in-the-office job (no regrets) in Central Europe and decided to travel along the West Coast of North America on a bike. I finished in Mexico and decided to explore Central and South Mexico by bus.

I have enjoyed my adventure. Besides travelling I was really happy to make breaks and be useful to others by volunteering. I enjoy helping and interacting with people, practising meditation, learning more about others as well as myself, being social and spreading peace. And to continue having more awesome adventures!

I have quite a bit of volunteering experience. I started volunteering as a student and found it both personally rewarding as well as beneficial for the community. Lately, I have helped to run the 2019 UK Dharma Celebration at a Buddhist Meditation Centre in Derbyshire [https://tarakmc.org/]. Over the years I have been slowly getting into the meditation practice, now with Sahaja Yoga [https://www.freemeditation.com/].

In the past, I have coordinated two work camps for the SCI [https://www.sci.ngo/]. Once we were restoring the World War I trenches and paths at the Open-Air War Museum on the Austrian-Italian border [https://www.dolomitenfreunde.at/openair-en/]. Another time we were doing some carpentry work and helped to install a biomass heating system at Rudolf Steiner Waldorf school [http://www.waldorf-schoenau.at/] in Lower Austria.

I believe in treating everyone with respect, regardless of time and place. Over time some of my hobbies have been pencil drawing, playing city-building video games, climbing/bouldering, caving, hiking, skiing and, last but not least, cycling. I am an introvert and a cat person and very much enjoy playing with cats if I can find some around who are willing to oblige!
