About Me

CURRENT MISSION

find out what life is about...

ABOUT ME

Since I started going abroad (NZ) for 8 months after school I can´t help myself striving to get to know different ways of life, enjoy landscapes and learn how different but in the same time how similar other people can be. I learned (and still learning) about myself by getting to know ohters. These are only a few reasons why i love to travel so much.
In the same time it is important for me being with my family and good friends. They are like a solid ground were you can always go back to.
Finding and expressing myself in art, music and even in surfing makes me feel complete.

PHILOSOPHY

As long as you got your eyes open and you find something that you have faith in- nothing can touch you.
