About Me

CURRENT MISSION

to see all that is to be seen...

ABOUT ME

I'm very easygoing and open-minded. I love trying new things and experiencing what life has to offer. I'm really passionate about travelling, learning about new cultures and languages and meeting new people from all over the world. I really am curious about everything and like to hear and try to understand different points of view about things.
I'm a vegetarian and as such have learned how to make some killer veggie food and have a penchant for baking too.

PHILOSOPHY

Go with the flow but don't drift.
Acceptance, understanding, try seeing the funny side of life without ignoring the other not so funny sides as well. Try to remember as well as forget.
Listen! Stop to smell the roses (or anything else as sweet).

Teach, Learn, Share

"the only frontier we have left to discover is ourselves".
"thieves respect property, they merely wish the property to become their property that they may more perfectly respect it" henry david thoreau.
"for children are innocent and love justice, while most of us are wicked and naturally prefer mercy" g.k.chesterton

There are plenty of these kinds of quotes. The point is to try and learn from every experience you have and from the different people you meet.
