CURRENT MISSION

Figuring it all out

ABOUT ME

After some long and experimental years of studying I just spent two years being trained as a teacher in a highschool. Due to work my great couch surfing days seemed to have passed, but I decided to go travelling again- Just back from fabulous trip to the US. Now I am finding out where to live next!

PHILOSOPHY

You can do it! (At least that's what I tell my pupils!)
