About Me
CURRENT MISSION
Learn languages! As many as possible, so I can open my self up to as many cultures as languages I speak!
ABOUT ME
I am 26 and don't have a clear idea of what I want to do in life. So until I figure it out, I want to discover and experience different life situations!
PHILOSOPHY
Difficult to put into words, but I guess I can say that trying to make the best of everything that comes your way by keeping an open mind is a good start!

Movies: Directors I really like would be Quentin Tarantino, David Fincher, Gus Van Sant, a couple Dan Boyle movies, Coen Brothers, Christopher Nolan, Martin Scorsese, Woody Allen, Wes Anderson and movies by title, well, Lord of the Rings, Shawshank Redemption, 12 Angry Men, 12 Monkeys, Dead Man Walking, the Godfather I and II, Goodbye Lenin, La vie d'Adèle, Inside Man, La vita è bella and probably many more, I am a by movie fan!
Books: This would be the area of my life I would like to work on the most. I haven't read many books and I wish to put myself to it!
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
I lived for 5 days on a near deserted island in Panama with 2 German friends and 2 Kunas (the indigenous people who lived there) with no electricity or water. The island was about 150 meters of circumference and surrounded by crystal clear water filled with hundreds of different species of fish we could see when we went snorkelling!
I went with two friends on a midnight swim in the south of Turkey, on a deserted beach once. There weren't any lights so it was very dark. When we moved around in the water the plankton lit up and that created balls of light underwater with each of our movements! Probably one of the most beautiful and amazing things I've seen.
What I Can Share with Hosts
I travel with my guitar so who ever likes to sing, jam, etc, I would be happy to do it wth you!
I like cooking a lot so it's never a problem for me, it's more of a pleasure!
