ABOUT ME

I've been travelling since I'm a little kid... my parents took me to many places all over the world. And since they are both translators and thus very gifted in terms of foreign languages they always got into contact with local people quickly and made lots of friends by which I profite nowadays when I travel by myself and visit them.
I'm not as gifted with languages though (I'm therefore better in math and physics) but I enjoy travelling nonetheless especially if I meet up with old friends or make new ones on my way.
But I especially enjoy being outdoors with just few people around me and most of my trips are therefore rather to nature than to cities.

PHILOSOPHY

Nerver stop learning and thinking.
Be empathic!
