What else

Gaming

Gaming: Discovered it in my late twenties. Today something I absolutely love to do. Resident Evil, Ghost of Tsushima or Horizon Zero Dawn until the PlayStation overheats.

Music

I do not function without it. Everything louder than everything else. Since 15 years mostly metal. Kreator, Blind Guardian, Kataklysm and approx. 3.298 other bands. Can't wait for the post-pandemic concerts.

Cooking & Friends

It’s always nice to have friends for dinner ;-) Cooking, eating and drinking together, talking about everything and anything whenever I can spare the time (sometimes even if I can’t). Best stress relief.
