Having studied in China and Germany, I am now pursuing a masters degree in London. I am a cheerful and curious person who is always happy to add an element of fun, liveliness, spontaneity and adventure to life. I like to pass time immersing in good books, long walks and meaningful conversations. Delighted to explore and embrace new skills, ideas and experiences. I am keen on getting to know and understand different cultures and people from all walks of life. I love to engage in light-hearted banter as well as intriguing discussions on various topics. Enjoying inner peace and trying to live more consciously. On my way to become more open and fair-minded, inquisitive and flexible; develop a propensity to seek reasons, a desire to be connected and a respect for and willingness to entertain diverse viewpoints.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Spent a picturesque night at the base camp of Mount Everest on Tibetan side at an altitude of 5200m. Truly breathtaking experience (no pun intended;-)

Teach, Learn, Share

I love sharing knowledge and have a humble attitude towards learning anything interesting. I find it fascinating to gather different perspectives to see a bigger picture. I love hearing about people’s stories and perspectives on life and everything that comes with it. I really enjoy getting to know the depths of what drives people, what our struggles are, what we believe, how we've been socialised and what makes us the unique human beings that we are. People always inspire me in one way or another.
