About Me

CURRENT MISSION

ABOUT ME

*.* __Π____ *.*

Welcome on my page!

My days are filled with little dramas and comedies, but daily life often seems dull to me. I feel like there isn't enough time for all the interesting stuff - travel, photography, my guitar and all other sorts of interesting things. Still, I love the simple things in life, like a sunflower, who always follows the sun.

PHILOSOPHY

When I was 5 years old, my mom always told me that happiness was the key to life. When I went to school, they asked me what I wanted to be when I grew up. I wrote down happy. They told me I didn't understand the assignment and I told them they didn't understand life.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I have been in Kiruna in the north of Sweden in March 2009, where I took some days of. I lived in a little cottage at a big frozen and snow covered lake, and enjoyed the quiet peacefulness. No crowds, cars, noise, but rare species of birds, tracks in the snow and wolves howling somewhere in the distance. I went dog sledding and had fishsoup in a Tipi. It was like some kind of an unknown and strange dream for someone like me, who loves big citys, like New York or Paris.
