I'm only satisfied when I get to the core of things. Dig everything authentic and true!

I recently graduated in Business Administration and took a gap year to explore and discover myself. No worries though, not a business shark here! I'd like to specialize in the green management and sustainability field because I'm deeply in love with nature. Backpack travels are my kind of travels. Hiking, Trekking and generally any other outdoor activity are a big Yes, too.

Fun fact, my mum was an archeologist: I spent my childhood on archeological sites rather than at fun fairs. Some of you may think of it as a sad thing, but it was actually awesome and it turned out pretty well. I ended up developing a strong fascination towards ancient cultures, mythology and the formation of languages - could chat about that for hours.

I was born a very empathetic person, I'm good at understanding and connecting with the others. I really enjoy communication. Listening to someone is like reading a novel to me. I don't mind silence, too, at times. I think there's a moment for everything... Exchanging stories is a bit like exchanging gifts, right? This has probably something to do with my passion for books (you can find a list below). I have a thing for anglo-saxon authors... Literature is life!

On a lighter tone, I love rpg video games thus mangas thus J a p a n!
I was raised with FinalFantasy, Persona, KingdomHearts etc etc... I have a real devotion to those sagas. Back in high school I had even started learning Japanese just to feel neared to my favorite characters... Japan is still some dreamland to my eyes...

Speaking of sports, I'm a former volleyball and tennis player. I like to move! Currently on Yoga, turns out I'm pretty flexible.

Oh, I have a dog. Whom I devotedly love. It's still a puppy (and it's my first!) so... any advice on dogs education is greatly welcomed!

I also like taking pictures ( IG: rick_ti , if you want to check some out) and like to print out those who represent me most.

Eine tolle Erfahrung, die ich gemacht habe

Crossed the Alps and moved in another country for the sake of love.

Lehren, lernen, teilen

I feel deep respect and admiration for those who can play an instrument. It's really something I stand in awe to. I'm good at languages and love to learn and teach about them, ancient languages are the key to modern ones. French is my current ambition.

Was ich mit Gastgebern teilen kann

First things first: I can cook some good Italian stuff. My carbonara is legendary!

Love sightseeing and slow tourism, I'm a good partner in travels. Never pushy, always up to visit something new or to just sit on a rock in contemplation.

Strong opinions and sarcasm here!! We can keep it light and fun, or we can engage in some discussion about the meaning of life.

Although I have nothing like a diploma or certification, I can happily teach some Yoga to anyone interested!
