ABOUT ME

"Seize the day and enjoy every minute of your life" That´s the most suitable philosophy describing my way of thinking.
I am an easy going, open-minded, friendly girl who is able to be an extrovert only in her introverted world. Basically, I'm an obsessive bookworm :)

As you can read below I spend a lot of time in tearooms where I dream about traveling to India and teaching children, about writing a book and you know, about saving the world :D

I love books and clothes from second hand and orient shops, herbal tea and tea at all, psychology, psychosomatics, mythology, cemeteries, chalva, white roses, Peter Pan, numerology, rain, children, laugh, long deep talks, folk dances and folk music (Irish, Scottish, Bretonic, Czech) ...

I don't like shopping, clubbing and sunbathing - don't think I will be eager to do that. It's a kind of suffering for me!

PHILOSOPHY

Well, I suppose I am here to help, inspire and teach the others. To make them feel happy and satisfied :)
Therefore I became a teacher ... I love work with kindergarten children as well as with adults :o)

The sense of life? LOVE :o*

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

As far as traveling is concerned I will never forget my first journey to Britain when I was 16, the view of white cliffs and then of Tower Bridge - love at first sight, I felt like home :) And then Scottish Glencoe ...
The most amazing experience is still ahead of me - I wish I had four (or at least two) little sweethearts. And Im sure it will be the best lifetime experience!

Teach, Learn, Share
