About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Learning to do "nothing", laugh as much as possible.

ABOUT ME

I really like living. There's so many things to try, to do, to learn. Some excerpt of my long list of experiences (and I also count small things like eating a "Pomelo" as an experience):
I studied, I worked as a goat shepherd in Estonia for half a year, in a theatre, in an office, I travelled, played music, ate pasta, met friends, moved around, thought.
That's basically what I'm still doing... and a lot more!

PHILOSOPHY

"Be willing to go a long way to find a secret you don't even know you were looking for"

Music, Movies, and Books

Sometimes overwhelmed by the amount of songs, stories, art that I don't know yet and will never know.
But some examples. Music: Jazz, Flamenco, Indie, Electronic & Balkan Music; Film directors: Agnes Varda, Coen Brothers, Sam Mendes, Hong Sangsoo; Books: The Wall, The Neverending Story, The Discovery of Slowness, ...

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Trying to run away from a rainstorm. Climbing mountains, singing in a huge choir.
