ABOUT ME

Open-minded, language-addicted, hyphen-loving Austrian.

PHILOSOPHY

German:

Und nichts ist beliebig,
und nichts ist egal,
atme ein, atme aus,
Du hast immer die Wahl.

Supposed-to-be-English:

And nothing's indifferent,
And nothing's all the same,
Breathe in, Breathe out,
you've got always the choice!
