ABOUT ME
I grew up in a small town on the northern edge of Zurich. I graduated two years ago from university in business administration and want to go traveling before I continue with my masters, which I intend to do in a foreign country. I am outgoing and love to get to know new people and have interesting conversations. In my spare time I do a lot of sports, from hockey what I played for more than seven years over running, tennis, swimming to going to the gym. From my point of view its essential to travel and see the world, inasmuch as it broadens your horizon. Moreover, I like to catch up with friends, go out for a movie or partying and generally enjoy life.
PHILOSOPHY
I strongly believe that however you treat people, they will treat you in the same way. So be as good to others as you can and act as you would want them to act towards you.
Life is not about finding yourself, its about creating yourself! Opportunities are not found by seeing what is, but by seeing what could be! Assume nothing!
"Yesterday is History, Tomorrow a Mystery, Today is a Gift, Thats why it's called the Present"
