About Me

I fall in love with other people's life choices. I love to move to new countries. I like to start over again. I like to get lost. I love coincidences. I love to argue. I love passionate people. I love options. I love crazy people. I love damaged people. I have a love/hate relationship with paradox. I love impulsive people. I like Autumn and Spring. I love random gestures of kindness. I love vulnerability.

Interests

I have two passions: learning/studying and travelling and I want to dedicate my life to matters such as gender equality and women's rights.

Books, movies, music, running, cooking, food, wine, art are also part of my life.

"Vulnerability is the birthplace of love, belonging, joy, courage, empathy, accountability, and authenticity. If we want greater clarity in our purpose or deeper and more meaningful spiritual lives, vulnerability is the path." Brene Brown

"There are two things that define and distinguish us: our patience when we have nothing, and our attitude when we have everything"
