About Me

PHILOSOPHY

"You can live to be a hundred if you give up all the things that make you want to live to be a hundred."
-Woody Allen-

Interests

I love the adventure, the unknown and the feeling of independency and freedom you get while traveling. I believe that you can only truly get to know a country if you get to know the people. I love meeting and connecting with people from different backgrounds and cultures, I love people who are unconventional, curious, hilarious, honest, vulnerable and authentic. I believe those values unite us across borders. I love to question the status quo and I am open to learning from different cultures and truly listen to different perspectives without being judgmental (not always easy!). For me traveling means being in one location for a longer time and truly emerging instead of just checking off the tourist sites.

I love both wild cities (moved from Berlin to New York and spending a lot of time in Los Angeles) and the wild outdoors (e.g., camping in the desert, hiking in mountains, diving and sailing). I love listening to a range of music, from classic to electronic and playing the piano. I enjoy going out both to dinner, private events or raves, and I enjoy all kinds of fresh food. I recently discovered Burning Man two years ago and I truly enjoy the community and party.
