About Me

CURRENT MISSION

exploring life in the US

ABOUT ME

essential to me: to know where the best second hand shop is in town, get seasonal vegetables from farmers near the city/region
--
I received my B.A. in Comparative Literature and do my masters degree in Ethics of Textual Cultures at the moment. I occupy myself with philosophical questions (I recently read a lot by Martha Nussbaum, like literature and film, love art (without really knowing much about it) and photography (Aëla Labbé)
--

I like clubbing and visited some festivals in my life. I like to take walks through a city I don't know. This is how I have spent almost the whole year that I was living in Paris. I got on the metro, got off at a station I did not know and walked until I recognized something familiar again.

PHILOSOPHY

There is more behind something someone began to call reality.
