About Me

CURRENT MISSION

I traveled Germany (and Europe) for some time, met great people and learn a lot. Went to Brazil and South America. Now I am studying in Leipzig (again Germany) and will be in Venice, Italy for six months.

ABOUT ME

I am a very fun, outgoing and sociable person. Everybody in my familiy are artist, so even though I am an engineer I enjoy art and really interesting conversations. I love sports, rockclimbing and mountainbiking, and Slacklining are some of my favourites(lately). I consider myself as a calmed, socialble, respectfull and honest person. My vision in life is all about happiness and learnings, every kind of learning experiences.

PHILOSOPHY

I believe that happiness and satisfaction in life are very important goals, but doing something for humanity while I am alive also ticks in me. For this to happen, social interactions are very important.
