Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
Seeking my path in life.
ABOUT ME
I am a 32-year-old researcher studying the "Molecular Biology of marine phytoplankton". I am living in Norwich, UK. I like to meet new people from all over the world and think that I am very open-minded. I would describe myself as a calm person but always enjoy the company of other people.
PHILOSOPHY
My motto is "We cannot discover new oceans until we have courage to lose sight of the shore" (André Gide). I think you always have to encourage yourself to go on adventures and gain new experiences.

Music, Movies, and Books
I like the movie Hithhiker's Guide to the Galaxy based on the book of Douglas Adams. Another book and corresponding movie I really liked was Parfume by Patrick Suskind.
I like Latin music as well as reggae and electronic stuff (e.g. Cafe del Mar). I would say I am very open in terms of music.
I like books from Paulo Coelho.
