About a week ago I did an interview with the Oregon Entrepreneurs Network, which is an all around awesome organization. If you live in Oregon, and are looking to start your own business and/or invest into someone’s business, you should check them out. The main focus of the interview was IdeaMensch.com but I was able [...]

Having moved into a smaller apartment, we’re all making sacrifices. The bathroom is a little tight these days, but Otto is adjusting well to his new potty shelf.
how to not move your dishes
by mario on 28. Jan, 2010 in los angeles
I am in the process of moving again. I move a lot. It’s probably something that I will be remembered by some day. Anyhow, I had the genius idea of moving little by little. Every night a little bit. Last night was kitchen night. Check out the pic below. Please don’t ever move your dishes [...]
my interview in the Montanan
by mario on 26. Jan, 2010 in los angeles, montana
The Montanan (University of Montana Alumni magazine) did an interview with me a couple of weeks ago, which has now been published. It’s a very nice piece and I am super thankful for both Brianne Burrowes who did the interview and my good friend Adam Steffen who made the connection.
I have a very special connection [...]

Five things I miss about Germany
by mario on 20. Nov, 2009 in los angeles
I am not exactly sure why I am writing this. You probably don’t care. Then again, you probably also don’t care about why I am training for an Ironman, why I thought I could live without a cell phone or what I think about those weird five finger shoes. Most of my entries are about [...]
shutters on the beach
by mario on 11. Nov, 2009 in los angeles
I met a good friend of mine for a drink last night at Shutters on the Beach. I had a pretty good idea of where the place was, but thought it might be smart to confirm with Google Maps. See below. Those directions didn’t lead me anywhere, especially not the beach. This is why I [...]
