At the end of May, I left the Netherlands after living there for about five years. I started a new job in Hamburg in June and now I'm sitting in my parents' garden, giving this page a new look and writing this note. I meant to move to Hamburg, too, but its housing situation is the height of perversion and, so far, I didn't manage to find a modest apartment. And so instead I'm looking for one in Leipzig together with my sister.

Hi, I'm Philipp.
32. German. Based in Leipzig (soon), Germany. Previously in Eindhoven, Netherlands. Frontend developer.
Straight. He/him. ~180 cm. Extroverted & quite shy. Communicative, a good listener. A six, maybe a seven; a strong nine if you like my humor.
Very single.

This page is meant to be as unfiltered and as subtext-free as I can manage.

- i love lots of music and I try to keep a record of what I like throughout the year
- Basketball Shoes from Black Country, New Road's album Ants From Up There
- Sleep from Godspeed You! Black Emperor's album Lift Your Skinny Fists Like Antennas to Heaven is perhaps one of the greatest songs of all time
-
web development
- i have a website: kleinfreund.de
- i publish npm packages (retrieve, yet-another-color-picker, vue-accessible-color-picker, …)
- i'm generally very interested in web development, contribute to open-source software occasionally and used to love computers before you all made them a nightmare
-
books (which I also keep track of nowadays)
- sci-fi (sentient robots! space! monumental ideas!)
- some popular science (to look cool in the café)
- some literary fiction (to look cool in the café also)
- the Saga comic series (too horny for the café)
- space stuff, nature, photography, art, cool rocks

- homophobes, transphobes, racists, misogynists, fascists, macho men
- people who make their cars/bikes loud as fuck
- people who smoke in public places (yes, generally; and yes, even bars and clubs), especially near others or people who eat, and worst, near children
- AI (just leave me alone)
- (surely to be continued)
# Jump to heading ? I want
A companion, a friend, a lover. To not be alone. But: Dating is fucking weird.
(Mu-An). And it's certainly not working for me.
A relationship would be nice. Don't mind someone older. Not opposed to something casual (though I don't know what that's like, so perhaps I won't like it; one can only try). Would prefer something long-lasting.
I need physical touch. This isn't about sex. Well, it can be. The point: I want someone who's willing to be close to me. If that's not you; that's not us.
# Jump to heading ! To consider
I greatly dislike doing unfamiliar things alone (traveling, new hobbies, going to bars, etc.). I very much love doing unfamiliar things together. I'm independent, but this aspect can make me depend on others sometimes. You might not like that.
Want to know more? Write me @kleinfreund or find my email.

Bye!
