Traveling

ABOUT ME

Sven and I met in NZ in 2011. I am a student at NYU and he is going to pursue work in Germany once he has finished his exciting travels around my home country. We were in Western Germany earlier this summer, visiting his home city. We hope to spend a week or two in NYC this summer!

PHILOSOPHY

"I could not become anything; neither good nor bad; neither a scoundrel nor an honest man; neither a hero nor an insect. And now I am eking out my days in my corner, taunting myself with the bitter and entirely useless consolation that an intelligent man cannot seriously become anything, that only a fool can become something."
-Dostoevsky, Notes from Underground
