About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Learn to travel slow.

ABOUT ME

Hello, Bonjour, Guten tag, Hola, Oi!
I'm an aspiring freak-folker and quasi-ethnomusicologist who likes to groove. At the moment, I have the privilege of studing in Paris while simultaneously rediscovering my own country. Learning is my temptation, and as one star-gazing friend of mine explained to me, Scorpions give in to such quite often. So, I guess I struck a goldmine.

PHILOSOPHY

Life may be nothing more than one big metaphor.
