About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Travelling Northern Italy

ABOUT ME

I'm someone who gets in touch with people quite easily, allthough I'm probably not the type of person who recounts her whole life to a stranger at first conversation. You'll find out the rest if we meet each other.

Interests

It's my great luck that the things I studied and the things I'm interested in absolutely correspond: ancient cultures, especially art and architecture. I can spend hours in museums and at historical sites without being able to explain exactly what's so fascinating about those things and places. Of course, studies and interests make me a traveller.

Music, Movies, and Books

There aren't any special "types" of films that I usually watch. But usually it would probably rather be small productions than those things people call "blockbusters".

I listen to music all the time, so in that case my taste is more differenciated than in what concerns movies. I mostly listen to Singer/Songwriter, Indie and different types of electronic music. Some band-name-dropping, if You like: Bon Iver, The National, Stars, The Notwist, Four Tet, Caribou, Apparat, Ellen Allien... I could go on for a while.

I do read a lot but couldn't say I'm most interested in anything special. Throughout this winter and spring I made my way from 19th century Russia to french existantialism; at the moment I'm reading Heinrich Mann. But please let me tell You that I also read football magazines.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I can't really tell about particular moments, but I would say that Rome left me awestruck all the time!
