Will there be life after death?

19 November 2022

It’s not a philosophical question, although that is my field.It is more of a concrete question: I had heard of human composting some time ago, but I thought it was futuristic.

Mind the gap

22 March 2015

So after almost a month and a half, I got a job too; I started last Wednesday. The impact of the job was less terrible than I thought, although, of course, I still have some difficulties (with the language, especially). I can’t say it’s my life’s work, so far I’ve...
