About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To make a (peaceful) revolution ;-)

ABOUT ME

My friends call me "Ms Sunshine" because I smile a lot.
I am a committed person.I think it is important to think about other people and leave the world in a better condition as when we were born. Therefore, I try my best as teacher! Happy kids = better future

I enjoy cycling, observing the nature and sharing time with inspiring people. Life&love!

PHILOSOPHY

"If I cannot dance I am not interested in your revolution" (Emma Goldman)
