CURRENT MISSION

ABOUT ME

I am an easy-going person, for whom the glass is always full, and I always find adventures. I am driven by my immense curiosity for the world, how it works, and for people. My passion is intercultural communication, and learning new cultures from meeting different people, not from guidebooks. I can tell a good story or two, but I also love to listen. I feel that I am constantly developing, and hopefully, becoming a better person, though of course this is a neverending quest))

PHILOSOPHY

Life is there to live it and value every moment.
I try to find happiness in the small things, while striving to comprehend the bigger picture.

我做过的一件不可思议的事情

I am easily amazed, and sometimes the smallest thing leaves me awestruck, like a beautiful ladybug or an intricate snowflake.
But I guess something that certainly rocked my world was a fire on Ibiza that I endured during a yoga retreat. It was the first day of yoga in a beautiful area in Benirras, just a slope with pine trees right next to a secluded beach, and a forest fire broke out. People started running around, and I went up to my little hut, and saw about 50 meters away from me a huge wall of fire, spreading quickly. I was mesmerised for a moment. Then I realised it's going to reach here in no time, and so grabbed my suitcase and ran down to the beach, joined by many others, as the cars were blowing up nearby. We then huddled near the water as the smoke and fire ring closed around us, hugging strangers and united in this disaster. In a while boats started taking us, like a privately organised evacuation, and we ended up in a makeshift refugee camp on another beach. Everyone was so emotional you could feel it in the air, and that was amazing for me, too. We stuck together with a bunch of people from my yoga retreat, and since then we are like the Fire Family. This connection that we have - nothing can change it now, this bond will remain, and anyone in the world can have an extreme bond with anyone else in the world in a matter of minutes, if you experience something emotional, which is truly a wonderful show of empathy.
