ABOUT ME

In my life my prority is to be honest and fair to everybody. I like to meet people from all over who have different views than mine, let's discuss them! It's our diversity/'awkwardness' that makes us so special! Everybody deserves to be heard and respected by others.

And I love to explore the field of foreign languages, especially those that I have no idea of. Trying to twist my tongue in every place I've been to - struggling to learn new languages got me so hooked on, that I've decided to study Arabic filology which at the time was the most distant for me. So you see: it's even better if you don't speak any of the languages I do. We're gonna have to create our own one.

TRAVELLING

Do you know the feeling of itchy feet? I'm an addict, I agree. Can't live without leaving the daily routine from time to time and disappearing for a longer period in a different world.

Sometimes I need to come back home, too. But if I'm lucky, people like you can visit me & give me a taste of other corner of our planet and a hint for planning the next adventure. Come and be my guest, I'd like to welcome the world at my place!

Interessen

I could talk about international politics for hours, especially about people's identity in modern world. Even more, if I can do it in the language of my partners in conversation - I believe some facts cannot be translated.

Traditional ways of living in other places are also one of my biggest interests, there's nothing better than a talk over a mug of tea (or a glass of heavier stuff, in some places...) in somebody's house. Touching the foreign cultures has always made me realize we're much the same, just brought up according to different standards. The core of ourselves, our dreams and desires remain the same, no matter where we live. I love to remind myself of that from time to time.

I used to practise some sports, like skiing, volleyball, cycling, mountain hiking. Watching a football game in an international company is also an interesting experience.

Musik, Filme und Bücher

Generally I not really into fantasy which is quite extraordinary. Sorry! but I fall asleep watching 'The lord of the rings'!

BUT! Give me another title of a documentary, the less popular, the better. I prefer to watch movies from different 'niches'. Topics: so boooring!: politics, customs, folk music, social issues, etc.

Eine tolle Erfahrung, die ich gemacht habe

I guess I've changed much over the last year and my horizons were enormously broadened during my Erasmus in Turkey. As I had lots of time to travel around that beautiful country in which lack of local language skills isn't a problem at all, I encountered such a warm and simple attitude to sharing what you have with no expectations to take anything in response. I guess exploring the world and its people has become something more than just hobby from now on... I guess it'll be rather a lifestyle.

To prove it - I changed my field of study to enable me to fully use my abilities and realize my life-long hidden desires freely. Now - the whole world opened!
