I've trained dogs for about 18 months on the side of university and wrote a short essay about it in my knowledge management course. I loved Cesar Milan's show and just saw this inspiring TED talk:
I like how he explains what a punishment entails - that it does not need to be nasty, painful or scary, but that it is a simple stimulus to reduce the repetition of a bad habit from reoccurring again.
Judging just by his attitude, he must be an amazing dog owner - and a great father :)

First post
Lately I've had some questions that interest me pop up randomly and I forget to write them down, so I thought, maybe its about time I start a blog, write these things down and have people discuss my thoughts and give me feedback.
I'm extremely busy, so i barely ever manage to chat to my friends and cram up socializing into my weekends.
Hopefully, I'll find not only time to write posts, but also discuss ideas.
Those of you interest in the basic facts, I'll do the obligational about me post here, right now to get it over with.
I'm half German, quarter Indian, quarter Russian, born in Germany, spent my childhood in Abidjan, the Ivory Coast/Perth, Australia, then moved to a small village outside Bonn (which was horrid btw), moved to Nairobi, Kenya after that and ended up in Stockholm Sweden.
I graduated and studied IT & Communication Sciences in Stockholm and in December I have my thesis deadline so hopefully I'll spend more time writing my thesis instead of blogging ;)
Random stuff: I love animals, horseback riding, training dogs, dancing (tango), kitchen utensils, everything wireless, whiskey, Aloe Vera, fresh juice, online streaming video, audiobooks & smelling good and eating good food.
Perfume: Dior Addict, Prada Prada, Paul Smith London, Diesel Fuel for Life, Narcisso Rodriguez For Her
Food: sushi, eggs, fish & seafood, mangos, onion bhaji, pakora, gulab jamuns, spaghetti carbonara, blinis, bulgogi, tartufo, crème brulée
Enough!
At least i can go to bed without the blog looking empty now :)
