About Me

CURRENT MISSION

enjoy life :)

ABOUT ME

I'm like an onion. Why? Bcs I have multiple layers :) Always with a smile on my face and easy to get thrilled, but also super-honest and proactive. Like to be on the move and spend as much time I can simply enjoying life!

PHILOSOPHY

When it comes to sort of religious views, I believe that there was some kind of force or sth that made the universe tick. So that, kind of, makes me a deist. My opinion about this kind of stuff is not rock hard and will most likely change during my life. I also believe in the afterlife bcs I find it hard to believe that I will never see people I love after they die. But the thing is, no matter how it looks after your life ends, I do my best to cherish every moment and enjoy life to the fullest. As they say "Life is a journey, not the destination." + I would feel bad if I don't write here one of my favourite quotes:

Be the change you want to see in the world.
- Mahatma Gandhi -

Music, Movies, and Books

Speaking of art in general, visual arts is the type of art that I love the most. Maybe it is bcs, for me, it has the biggest strength for transferring emotions. But another reason is probably the fact that I like nice stuff :)

It is a bit hard for me to decide between music, movies or books but hmhmhm I'd go with books (or music,hmmm or movies? Urgh being indecisive is sometimes hard, or is it?). Let's drop some names.

Books: The Stranger, Jonathan Livingston Seagull, Animal farm, The Fault in Our Stars, White Oleander, 1Q84, Baudelaire's Flowers of Evil, Wir Kinder vom Bahnhof Zoo etc.

Movies: Pulp Fiction, Perfume: The Story of a Murderer, Leon the Professional, The Godfather, Reservoir Dogs, Amelie, The Fall, The Village, In Bruges, Stranger Than Fiction, Kill Bill, V for Vendetta, The Shawshank Redemption, Un Chien Andalou etc.

Series: Game of Thrones, South Park, Adventure Time, Malcolm in the Middle, New Girl, House M.D. etc.

Music: The Doors, Die Antword, Eric Satie, Amy Winehouse, Carla Bruni, Serge Gainsbourg, jazz, Chet Faker, The Prodigy, Sex Pistols, Gogol Bordello, Arctic Monkeys etc.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

unicorn riding an pegasus yeaaah

Teach, Learn, Share

https://www.coursera.org/ -> here u can be a part of an online course (from broad areas) and get a degree after u pass a test!

I'm really into learning new stuff including every single type of knowledge; from general to practical. We can exchange knowledge from different areas eg. politics or physics. Also, I'd like to learn whole bunch of new skills; from driving a skateboard or how to make a kite to knitting :)

Anyway, I think it is impossible not to learn something when u actually live with someone for couple of days. Learn something new every day-one of my mottos.
