CURRENT MISSION

to meet wonderful people and see great films

ABOUT ME

I like to think of myself as a filmmaker and a writer. I'm not ready to settle down or start my career just yet. I want to travel more, see more things. The best way I've found to do this is being an Au Pair. I spent a year in Paris and then in Germany but I found Cologne to be so nice that I'm staying here a bit longer now, working in a Kindergarten. I'm not sure what I want to do with all of this but I am sure I'll figure it out. I keep writing all the while and maybe something great will happen. I'm really bad at faking things. The digital age scares me a bit which is why couchsurfing is so amazing because it's about actually meeting and interacting with people.

PHILOSOPHY

Live and let live.
