About Me

CURRENT MISSION

to find my place

ABOUT ME

a little crazy, always curious, mostly happy, naively optimistic;) , just loving life with all the pain and happiness and confusion and dreams and seasons (especially winter) and smells (especially rain) and all the precious moments it brings!

PHILOSOPHY

je ne regrette rien€, I try to;)

Help where you see help is needed, stand up for what´s right, be courageous, don´t look away! And appreciate what you have, it´s so much more than what most wish for.

Music, Movies, and Books

Ohohoh soo much..
I guess I'm into chick flicks..haha and I´m not ashamed;), but apart from that some favorite movies are: Life is beautiful, Le fabuleux destin d'Amélie Poulain, Les Choristes

about music: you know all these singer songwriters who don´t need anything but themselves and a guitar or a piano and sing about love and life and broken dreams and hopes and and and...? like Damien Rice or Ane Brun or Regina Spektor or Tom Waits or Vienna Teng or Ingrid Michaelson or Laura Marling...or or...

one of my favorite books is Monsieur Ibrahim and the Flowers of the Koran by Eric Emmanuel Schmitt, but there are many more which touched my life€, like Die unerträgliche Leichtigkeit des Seins (Milan Kundera), Kite Runner and A thousand Splendid Suns (Khaled Hosseini), Naokos LÃcheln (Haruki Murakami)...currently into Hesse

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

What I consider most amazing in my life have always been encounters with people... for me it was especially precious to meet elderly Polish people who suffered from the Nazis in Second World War and who shared their stories and feelings with me. From them I learned what forgiveness really means...

I love to learn new languages!!!
