I am an Anthropologist who doesn´t know anything more fascinating to get to know other cultures and meeting new people.
I truely think, travelling is the best way to grow and develop and i would love to meet new people who share my interests as well as teach me new things...:-)

I CAN`T HOST ANYONE TILL THE END OF 2017, CAUSE I AM TRAVELLING FOR 5-10 MONTH THROUGH SOUTH EAST ASIA !!!!

CURRENT MISSION

To absorb the colour of life, but never remember its details.

ABOUT ME

"I like hearing myself talk. It is one of my greatest pleasures. I often have long conversations all by myself and i am so clever that sometimes i don't understand a single word of what i'm saying." ;-)
Oscar Wild

PHILOSOPHY

"Drink wine. This is life eternal. This is all that youth will give you. It is the season for wine, roses and drunken friends. Be happy for this moment. This moment is your life."
Omar Khayyám (Rubaiyat)
