CURRENT MISSION

walk around a bit, maybe have a coffee

ABOUT ME

i´m interested in primates. i grew up in australia. i recently spent some lovely time in the forest studying capuchin monkeys in central america. i would really like to live in berlin. i studied zoology & I want to study something (everything) else. drifting to the next place and sleeping under trees seems much, much better than settling down or getting a real job of some kind.

PHILOSOPHY

the original plan was probably terrible anyway

Teach, Learn, Share
