About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Getting to know life - mine and that of others.

ABOUT ME

I lived for 3 years in Netherlands and half a year in Belgium. I enjoyed my stay in Belgium a lot because as I was there as Erasmus-student, I got to know many people from different countries, a part of their culture and traditions, and, of course, their way of cooking! Cooking and eating is very important to me, I love to cook for my family and friends, and to me eating is not just nutrition but also some kind of social event. I'm now living in Dortmund, taking care of my liitle daughter and writing my PhD thesis.

PHILOSOPHY

To me it's important to live my way of life but to still be open for influences and ideas of others.
