ABOUT ME Bohemian spirit. Longtime vegetarian. Periodic digital nomad. Work freelance because I like the work-life balance. Peacebuilding technical specialist for NGOs/UN is my profession. Started blogging and working on setting up my own project about peacebuilding. I’m a capoeirista; travel with instruments. Health nut. Fitness = capoeira, jump rope, running, stretching, calisthenics. Easy going. Love to see new places and meet wonderful people. When I visit new places I usually enjoy just walking around. It is nice to see some famous spots sometimes, but that isn't why I love to travel. There are so many other reasons indeed. Oh, I like to cook. ;) PHILOSOPHY the journey is the destination
Interested in Animals
Fluent in English
Learning Burmese
