CURRENT MISSION

ABOUT ME

Yeah many people say like: "It´s difficult to describe yourself", which is true, but I think it´s important too to reflect your own little existence, so here are some things I figured out about myself and general information ;)

I grew up in Dresden and spent most of my life here. But as I am a absolutely curious person, I love to travel and to experience other cultures. I did live two years in France, last time in an amazing multi-cultural house with up to ten people and I just loved the atmosphere there, the feeling of belonging together, although we were all from different backgrounds.

So now I´m in Bulgaria in the second year of my Masters that will finish in France, again ;) I don´t know what I´ll do with my life yet, but I´ll try to live it the best I can. I do not really believe in revolutions, I just think that we can change things by an open, positive and unbiased spirit towards others.

As a person I have many different facetes, but I think it takes time to get to realize that. In first place I´m a friendly and welcoming person, I love to laugh and to make people laugh. I care a lot about the ones around me and I´m pretty responsable. But also frank and direct in a way that sometimes people think I´m impudent, but honestly: I´m always respectfull. In general I´m easy to deal with ;)I don´t need luxury and I try to act reasonable in environmental questions like saving water and recycle.

I love to sing, to study, to cook...I read almost everything that I get in my hands and I´m glad spending time with my flatmates and friends.

What else: For further information please surf or host ;)

PHILOSOPHY

In general: There´s never only one way, one right or wrong.

But the thing I try to think of, when times are not easy is the following (which I try to tanslate, it´s by my favourite poet):

"Have patience with eveything unsolved in your heart
and learn, to love the questions themselves
as if they are loched rooms or books that are written in a foreign language.
Don´t look for the answers now, that can not be given to you, because you can not live them. And it´s all about living everything.
Live the questions now, maybe then you will, one distant day, grow into the answers."

Rainer Maria Rilke
