ABOUT ME

Hmm… where do I start? I think I have to fill this one out later.

PHILOSOPHY

I like to think that I do try to understand other people and cultures, or at least respect that we all are different. At the same time I do believe that all of us are prisoners in our own interpretation, nothing bad about that. It just makes us different and that is good. We just have to realise that we can't necessarily understand everything and everyone.

Musik, Filme und Bücher

These days I do have a thing for the 80's. Don't ask my why. Maybe the fact that life is turning more serious makes the need for something colourful?
I love classical literature, but I don't mind reading newer books either. But I do intend to keep away from the best selling list.
The best book I've read this summer is "The sailor who fell from grace with the sea" by Yukio Mishima.
I'm not going to be one of those people saying 'I like all kinds of music', because I don't, but I do like a lot of different types of music. I guess I don't appreciate all music genres, but I can do accept that all genres have good and bad bands/musicians.
Some bands' musicians that describe my taste is: Miles Davis, Syd Barrett, Nick Drake, My Bloody Valentine, Susanne Sundfør, Bjørk, Anoraak, Krafwerk, Farmers Market, Jaga Jazzist, The Cure, Goat, Todd Terje, Bonobo.

Eine tolle Erfahrung, die ich gemacht habe

My 4 months in Africa (Kenya, Zambia, Malawi) in 2012 was amazing. Or just to move out of Norway. It's not the much what I've seen that made an impression on me, but the feeling of freedom.

Lehren, lernen, teilen

Hmm, I'm not sure. I don't have any special talents, but I do enjoy learning. So I think I could be a good person to talk with. I used to play piano and saxophone when I was younger, so I guess I could always join in on conservation or observations on music. I love to sing, so maybe a jam wouldn't be too bad?
I haven't traveled that much, but I'm always willing to share my experience and that is what I would like to learn from others too.
I would like to learn what have shaped the people I'm meeting, if they've read an interesting book, heard a song that changed their mood, seen a place so beautiful/ disgusting that it changed their way of thinking, or just something they found interesting.
