I'm currently on a 3-month-ish trip through Canada. I'm staying around Vancouver and Vancouver Island for a while before heading to the east.

About me:
I'm usually a mixture of both. I'm both swiss and german, but born in Canada. I'm an introvert but love to explore and connect with people, I'm chaotic but super self-disciplined, I love expressive arts but I'm quite shy, I'm a chronic overthinker but into meditation and mindfulness, and so on. I'm a sucker for all arts and sciences. My biggest fascination is the human, whether it's understanding (psychology), analysing (neuroscience), physically connecting with (massage) or portraying humans (acting), I'm in. I love to learn new things and am currently super into neuropsychology, massage and Sign Language.
