About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To live life to the fullest, see as much as I can and meet great people.

ABOUT ME

I love to travel, am a big music fan, especially rock music, love to go out to bars and clubs and have fun, but also enjoy spending time in nature, gives me a lot of energy. I m a sun-addict, love it when its sunny and hot and prefer to spend my time outdoors than indoors. Love exploring a city on foot.. Have lived in 3 different countries (Switzerland, USA, Czech republic) and always loved hanging out with international crowds. It just adds so much diversity and richness to your life.

PHILOSOPHY

Just do it.
Never put things off.

Music, Movies, and Books

Loooove music. I prefer Rock, Singer/ Songwriter, Alternative, but I m open for anything. If something touches me on an emotional level, has a good flow or just plain kicks, its all good with me. Currently John Frusciante is my fav musician, Radiohead are always high on my list and I enjoy many many more.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Seeing the Iguacu waterfalls in South America was prob the most amazing sight I have ever seen, visiting the great wall of China was great as well. Spending a week in the Ecuadorian Jungle was def something to remember, as well as seeing humpback whales jumping out of the water a few meters away from our boat (again, Ecuador). I was fascinated when I first travelled to Morocco, immersing myself into the Arabian world, which was so different, intense, colorful, unlike anything I had ever seen.

Teach, Learn, Share

Being a language teacher this is obviously my speciality, I can offer German, English, French and Spanish. Having been a Bike messenger I know a thing or two about fixing a bike and am not too bad with computers.

Countries I’ve Visited

Argentina, Canada, China, Croatia, Denmark, Ecuador, Finland, France, Montenegro, Morocco, Norway, Peru, Spain, United Kingdom, United States
