CURRENT MISSION

go out and see some places I have never been to this summer

ABOUT ME

I grew up in Hamburg and just moved back here again and am very happy about it :).I'm interested in all kinds of arts, especially music and photography. Therefore I like to go and see concerts and exhibitions in my spare time. If there is a good film on, I enjoy that too. I love to travel, see more, learn more, experience different lifestyles, get to know new people&places, new music, new food.

PHILOSOPHY

Still Evolving..

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Being in the wilderness in Northern Sweden. Just ice and snow and smelly sledge dogs. My Erasmus semester in Sweden (great great people, good good memories), hiking in the Big Bend National Park in Texas. My time in Ireland in 2005. More probably.
