I'm in love with people: their behaviour, cultures, and different modes of self-expression. I get passionate about things quite easily and enjoy learning from others about the topics that ignite them.

Interests

Music. Singing and playing piano are my favourite things to do. Apart from that, I'm fascinated by art, languages, politics, community building, and sustainability. Camping and biking are something I always look forward to. Oh, and food! Food is a major interest. One could include wine on the list too.

Music, Movies, and Books

To name a few: Cohen, Dostoevsky, and Vonnegut.

Music? Jazz, Rock, Folk, Blues, Electronic, Funk... Really, anything that moves you. I'm quite shy about it, but on good days, I'd probably really enjoy jamming with you.

I enjoy film, but I couldn't say it's my first medium. Most recently, the docmentary 'Surviving Progress' has been on my mind.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Hiking in the Andes is a top memory. Nothing like waking up at 6am with the sun and sound of animals echoing from the mountains.
