About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Get inspired, be inspired, inspire others and stay inspired.

ABOUT ME

Thai-ish Icelander who has just moved from Bangkok to Seyðisfjörður and then from Seyðisfjörður to Bergisch Gladbach, close to Cologne in Germany.. All in one year. She likes concerts, movies, books, nature, beer, bonfires, zip lines, bicycles and cafés. This is a very random list out of many things she finds herself enjoying from time to time. She studies English in the University of Iceland meanwhile in Bali enjoying a surf and a Gado Gado or taking day trips to Amsterdam during a weekend. She really just goes with the flow. Now she is an Exchange student in Sydney, Australia.

When she feels changing something she does it without hesitating. She is a wanderer that is certainly not lost completely but finds herself in new situations and new projects regularly. She is a world resident that uses the term "at the moment I live" and does not plan to change that status soon.

Next mission: May 2016: Graduate from Uni.
Summer 2016 in Iceland: publish a travel magazine
Autumn 2016 - Spring 2017: Study Adventure Tourism

PHILOSOPHY

My personal philosophy is that we are born to fulfil a certain purpose. A purpose which we decided to fulfil when we left our previous life. I believe we are all on a spiritual path and we all have a personal message to the world. We all got something to share and we all have an interesting story to tell. I truly believe that we are meant to be happy, and we can only become so if we follow our path.
