About Me

I am in love with traveling so long.
My first adventure was in India for a month in 2000. In Europe, Middle East and Africa for 365 days in 2006. And some more short trips in Asia and the US. I also have lived in Paris, France in 2009-2010.
Now settle down in Tokyo and waiting for the next world exploration.

I am a free-lance graphic designer based on Tokyo, traveler, yogini, pescetarian, surfer.
Quite open-minded, but may be a bit shy for the first 10min for the first meeting :)

Music, Movies, and Books

Any kind of music if it is great: Rock, Jazz, Classical, African drums, Reggae, Dub, Arabic, Gypsy, R&B, Hip-hop, Latin, Electro, Techno...

Books: The Wind-Up Bird Chronicle (Murakami) is one of my favorite. And mostly I love to read old Japanese novels; Kyusaku Yumeno, Ango Sakaguchi, Tatsuhiko Shibusawa, Soseki Natsume...

I love French, Czech and Japanese movies and animations... Jan Svankmajer, Hayao Miyazaki for ex.
Once I joined a short movie as an actress. It was a lovely experience!
