Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
To create genuine connections with people I wouldn’t normally meet in everyday life by slowing down, getting to know them and learning about their perspectives.
ABOUT ME
I am a 30 year old traveller who is about to go to Canada to get to know a new country and hike in the mountains. I love to explore new places, drink coffee, cook and have stimulating conversations.
PHILOSOPHY
Enjoy life, be happy, but above all else, avoid hurting other beings. Respect human dignity, the right to be different and to disagree. Love everyone for who they are.
I like to appreciate the beautiful simplicities in life: the smell of rain or new books, enjoying the quiet solitude of the early morning, chatting while having a relaxing cup of tea or coffee with a friend, exploring cities on foot, comfortable silences...

Music, Movies, and Books
I’ll watch most types films, depending on my mood!
I listen to indie folk and rock, jazz, electro, house, RnB and sentimental music. I love movie soundtracks. Especially corny ones.
I like reading classics but also philosophical non-fiction. I also love children's books.
