CURRENT MISSION

seeing everything and every part of this world

ABOUT ME

curious and hard-working, smart-alec and lazy, shy and loud, good-listener, responsible, (im)patient... i guess everything depends on the situation.
Generally I can tell you that people are sometimes a little bit afraid when they get to know me but soon realize that their first impression was completely wrong :)

Here in Vienna I study English (not to become a teacher) and this year I started with South-Asian Studies, I also visted a school of photography for 2 years.

PHILOSOPHY

"Certainly, travel is more than the seeing of sights it is a change that goes on, deep and permanent, in the ideas of living."
or "The world is a book, and those who do not travel read only one page."
