ABOUT ME

I am quite sociable, well-travelled and open-minded.
That I like to think and read, have some sense of humour, can listen to other people and like to share my experiences with others. I can cook reasonably well. Like going out to a good Indian restaurant or a Sushi place.
I love traveling and I am quite good at discovering interesting spots and places in foreign countries.

PHILOSOPHY

Unfold your human potential
Sometimes it helps to realize the absurd aspects of life.

Interests

I am interested in different cultures. I enjoy theatre to cinema and art. I like dancing a lot and listening to Jazz, World Music, Classical music...
I have been singing in a choir for many years and I love singing songs by Bobby Mc Ferrin, or African Songs. At the moment I am learning to play the guitar. In summer I like to explore the area around Berlin by bike. I also practise Yoga and I sometimes meditate.
