About Me

CURRENT MISSION
can't wait to visit/return to <3 beirut and <3 istanbul in april!!!

ABOUT ME
well.. i love travelling, exploring different living spaces... and meeting interesting people from all over the world to broaden my horizon!

i think i am quite easy going, down to earth and uncomplicated... and of course very open minded (like every single one here... but i am more open minded than all of you!! harharr)

hm.. sometimes i am really out of it - but actually i can laugh about myself :)

books: what do you mean? yeah, i also like mel brooks!
(and yes: his humour is definitely better than mine)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

there are so many amazing moments in life that you don't expect... like losing a filled wallet in beirut - first being sad, then noticing that the whole street is searching for the owner of the wallet to give it back... or.... meeting a former syrian couchsurfing host in a bar in istanbul - by accident...

Teach, Learn, Share

- there is a big difference between enchiladas, tacos, burritos and quesadillas
- everything is possible in india
- dont be afraid of traffic in istanbul - no car can run faster than 30km/h
