About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Rethinking capitalism and society & learning to master my own reality

ABOUT ME

Travelling has been my passion forever and I love exploring as much of the culture as possible when im doing it. Im always eager to pholosophy about society and life over a glass of wine. Despite that I enjoy cooking, nightlife, Poi dancing and sports like rock climbing, snowboarding or everything involving a ball. Above all I am really bad at writing self descriptions which is compensated by my breathtaking ability to make a good first impression in person ;)

PHILOSOPHY

- Be the change you want to see in the world
- Stop thinking about your past/future and start living the sensation of the present moment
- Live and let live
- Realize the wisdome and power of nonjudgement and accaptence of moments/persons
... Guess this list could go on a while

Ill try to keep it short for Im working on my life philosophy quite a bit ;) Generally I believe, that there is no such thing as an objective reality but a subjective, dependent on our perception. Therefore reality is only an illusion and the only reality that exists is the one we experience. Additionally our perception depends on our believes, models and experiences of the world. Hence, we have the power to illusionate ourselves and create our reality. As a result, there are always positive sides to see and personal limitations to doubt ;) Im happy to share more of this over a glass of wine

Teach, Learn, Share

Well teaching languages is always fun. I could definitely help wth English/German and maybe a bit of spanish.
Usually I always carry around some juggeling stuff which Im happy to share.
Despite that im always happy about sharing some personal philosophies or positive energy. Im quite good at travelling lots without spending to much. Although I guess most of Cs members know that already ;)

On the other hand im open to learn pretty much anything. I guess thats why were here after all..
