Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
This is somewhat what anyone of my age should do, finish up studies , get a well paid job in switzerland, settle up (nooo i'm kidding on the settle up) but yeah you get the point. That usual stuff but spiced up with as much exploration as possible!
ABOUT ME
Hmm where should I start, hey let's start with the bad things about me! I'm very impulsive, it is typical of me to book a weekend trip to Tel Aviv in the middle of the Israel crisis just to get change and exoticism. I also have way too many points of interest, like trying to hold grades at school, travel every second weekend or so, learn two new languages at the same time and so on :) I'm also the kind of a folk who says a bit too often "don't worry it's gonna be fine" and who doesn't organize that much, the last one is more of a personal preference than a bad side though, as traveling is way more exciting when you only have a bare idea what you're going to do.
Cool that's with the bad stuff now we can get to the not-so-bad stuff! My huge curiosity and wish to learn everything can be pretty entertaining, like I might be speaking six languages at an Erasmus Bar night, pulling out some mind-numbing magic tricks and making sure everyone enjoys their night. The language wall always makes someone feel left out like if you speak finnish to one person and french to another, so the challenge would be to make sure everyone enjoys the party. I'm good at motivating people, like if I like what I'm doing, I get others to like it too. I'm respectful and tolerant, open-minded yet with a soft touch of old fashioned chivalry. I like to surprise people, pull out something they would have never expected. I like long discussions over existential subjects with friends just as much as small chitchat with random people sitting next to me in a café. It's all about building contacts for life.
My ultimate dream career would be airline pilot (or astronaut why not?) but with the price of the training it's gonna depend on some luck factors besides motivation. Since we're not on a word-marathon it's good to stop here, we will have plenty of time to discuss everything later :)
PHILOSOPHY
The world is fascinating, full of great people. If you havent seen it, you havent really lived. Go for your dreams!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Winning the jackpot at a casino in Geneva, bungee jumping, sunset over the arctic sea in Norway, wandering alone in the heart of Jerusalem, Partying in Colombo, Sri lanka, exploring Kiev by night during a one night stopover without even speaking Russian/Ukrainian. The list is too long ^^
Teach, Learn, Share
It's when you decide to finally go for your crazy ideas that awesome things start happening to you. Luck follows the daring. One tuesday I was in a bad mood and booked flights to Tel Aviv in Israel for the weekend. Thursday evening I was in Geneva, the airport was closing from 12pm to 4am and I had nothing to do until then. I decided to go to the casino nearby to spend some time... 10 minutes after entering I won a 4000eur jackpot, which will pay a few more trips :)
