Hi, I'm George!
I'm mostly interested in writing snail mail (paper mail). I'd like to write in English, German and Spanish. At the moment I'm learning Russian (sort of, not very actively)
I would like to know & visit people from around the world. In the past years I've met some international friends in real life and I would like to continue doing this.
Continue reading if you want to get to know more about me; hope you'll write me!
(A friends request is meaningless if you don't introduce yourself)
- Mathematics & science (I'm a tutor)
- Music, especially funk and instrumental tracks
- Different cheeses, drinks and sweets

- Healthy and conscious consumption

- Nationalism
- Addictions
- Bad parents
- Ethics
- Privacy
- Cloning
- Euthenasia
- Polygamy

Stepping out of your comfortzone - every day.
On the first public opening day of the longest cable way in the world in Mérida, I've been alone with a penpal and the cabin-operator to the top of pico Bolívar at 5100 meters - without any other tourists around.
It was dead quiet.
