About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Today is the first day of the rest of my life

ABOUT ME

I'm very interested into getting to know differnt cultures and people. I think this is the best way to learn more about yourself. I'm openminded and like to try new things.
Currently I'm studing civil ingeneering in Hannover, and in my spartime I enjoy sports and hanging out with friends and take every opportunity to do something cracy.

PHILOSOPHY

I try to see myself as a work in progress. There are so many things I want to understand, learn and experience and one great way to do that is to meet new people.
I like quotes, mostly because they often can express what I feelings much better as I ever could.
Oskar Wilde ones said: "To live is the rarest thing in the world. Most people exist, that is all."
"I wanted to live deep and suck out all the marrow of life!!!!!" - Henry David Thoreau
