About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To grow grow grow and experiment. Meet new people and challenge my perception of reality...

ABOUT ME

Hallo and hallo. I am a human, first and foremost. What else could you want to know? Well, I am ever in search of fellow adventurers (in the literal sense, but also in mind expansion). I really like the familiar, but whenever I feel too comfortable, I know it's time to shake it up again, usually in the form of traveling. I am a passionate feminist and vegany vegan (though I have been making some exceptions of the vegetarian persuasion while in Italia/traveling). I love to laugh, get into debates (friendly ones, of course), and be exposed to ideas/cultures/interests that I have never even heard of before. Let me know what you're about :)

PHILOSOPHY

Oh lordy. This is a hard one. Well, to put the short version down first, I am exploring existentialism and buddhism. I really believe that every person can create who they are, their own destiny and achievement, and I don't believe in one all-powerful deity. But, then again, I have realized (through personal experience) the varying connections that are always there between people, the energies that we use (and sometimes abuse) to affect one another and ourselves. In another realm of philosophy, I think it is extremely important to live well, but within your means. I think on the whole, we take too much from the earth and one another without giving in return...

...but all in all, I am still figuring it all out
