Meeting different people and cultures from all over the world. Leaving my old life behind and to start discovering the world and its beauty.

ABOUT ME

I'm a pretty open-minded, positive and easy going person who tries to enjoy life as much as possible! I love to travel, to get to know different cultures and to meet new people and their stories. I'm an active person who loves hiking and any kind of outdoor adventure. I'm a big animal and nature lover. I am vegan and I can definitely cook you some yummy vegan food if you like ;) I am trying to make the world a better place to beeing kind to every person I met and to treat the planet well. It's the only planet we have, so we should take care of it and don't litter it up. I love to laugh a lot and have fun, life is way to short to worry all the time! :-)

PHILOSOPHY

I think life is all about finding out who you truly are, doing what you love, believing in your dreams, being happy, smiling every day, spreading love as much as you can and just appreciate every day as it is!

Happiness is dancing in the rain instead of waiting for the sun to come out. Create your own magic :)

Music, Movies, and Books

I actually listen to a lot of different kind of music, it always depends on the mood ; )...

I read a lot of Fantasy books :) I just love it to dive into a story and completley forget about your life for a few hours. I also like to read books about life, feminism and spirituality.

Once in a while I like to watch a good movie. It can be an action movie, romance, documentary or funny movie. I am all into it :)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Deciding to leave my old life behind, quit my job and to fullfil my dream to travel the world :)
Hiking for 16 days in the mountains of Nepal and seeing the tallest mountain in the world.
Skydiving in Australia, shark diving in South Africa and Bungy Jumping in New Zealand - I am a little adrenaline junkie ;)

Teach, Learn, Share

Take risks, follow your dreams even if their scare you, don't sit behind a desk your entire life, live, get out, travel, fall in love with yourself and everyone around you, don't reget anything, take chances and make your life as beautiful as yourself, because that's the only life you have.

I love to learn new things from different cultures and the stories people have to tell.
I currently started to learn Spanish, so I hope to improve my Spanish while in South America :)
