CURRENT MISSION

Travelling. Getting better at public speaking. Dreaming. Watching movies. Trying to not get killed while cycling in Brussels. Oh, and I just started singing classes. The teacher's baby began crying when I started singing, but I don't take these things personally.

ABOUT ME

Outgoing person, laughs and sneezes loudly (yes, I inherited that from my dad), likes to talk & discuss. Although I'm German, I like neither beer nor football. Yep, that's possible.

PHILOSOPHY

"I always wondered why someone doesn't do something about that. Then I realized I was someone."

Lily Tomlin

Interests

Arts cinema. I can never be too stressed to watch a really depressing film ;-). Feminism (blog founder). Languages. Cats, dogs and rats.

Music, Movies, and Books

Music: Alternative/Indie, film music (e.g. Hans Zimmer), Electro, Imogen Heap. Oh, and I have a soft spot for kitschy musical songs.

Movies: Amour, Beasts of the Southern Wild, Brave, Contagion, Mommy, Once, Only overs left alive, Requiem, Revolutionary Road, Team America, Toni Erdmann, Tracks, We need to talk about Kevin, Yella

Books: everything from Kafka. And much more.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Never seen as many people in one place as in India :-). Go on a hike in the rice terraces in Guilin province (China). Being told by a Cuban woman that 28 degrees water temperature, after all, is a little bit chilly. Ok, these were two things I've seen/been told, and one thing I've done!
