I am student of English & American Studies at Augsburg University, currently spending a semester abroad in Beirut.

PHILOSOPHY

Don't worry about the future, or worry, but know that worrying is as effective as trying to solve an algebra equation by chewing bubble gum.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Met a black bear in the wild of the Rockies, that was awesome. Made a great hiking trip with my brother in Dovrefjell NP in Norway, awsome as well. Enjoying the first warm day of spring above Lac d'Annecy in France. Buying a beautiful scarf in Khan el-Khalili market in Cairo. And so on...

Teach, Learn, Share

I know how to catch snakes or frogs, this might sound strange but I am really good at it. I am interested in history and I love nature and being outdoors, hiking, sleeping in a tent in the wild, and while travelling, might sound a bit pathetic now, but I really want to feel the grandeur of a place instead of rushing through it.

Furthermore, I am a good and patient listener and always interested to learn more about other cultures and countries and how it feels for the locals to live in a particular place.
