ABOUT ME

I love the mountains, wind in my hair, the rain falling on my face, warm nights under the stars, the smell of pine trees in the air, rock music, skiing, rowing, eating :) esp random forest fruits, sunshine and lying on the grass...the gentle weeping of a guitar or wee melodies...i enjoy little things a lot..oh and I love trains, old, dodgy graffittied trains that travel slowly through mountains...where im able to hang my head out of the window like a dog :)

PHILOSOPHY

To see a world in a grain of sand,
And a heaven in a wild flower,
Hold infinity in the palm of your hand,
And eternity in an hour.

"sometimes i like to sit and think, and sometimes i just like to sit"

Uma Coisa Incrível que Eu Fiz

a day in the woods with my granny and the village's herd of goats, picking berries and herbs, resting under a tree and listening to old stories :)
Climbing the Great wall, watching the sunrise on Yellow mountain above the clouds!
Cycling around the island of Taiwan without spending almost any money, sleeping, taking showers and eating in police stations!
