Listening to waves crashing. sunshine on my skin. Hugs. Walking someplace without an idea of where I might end up. Music. Talking to strangers. Eating chocolate and everything that's in one way or another made of chocolate. Gin & Tonic. The moment when I realized that I did well not planning anything because everything works out differntly anyway. Seeing my family after a long journey. Arriving home.

Music, Movies, and Books

My absolute favourite book is "Into the Wild" by John Krakauer. The references to J.D. Thoreau's writings in particular are insightful. For some reason I like fictional books that include magic or something strange. The book I'm currently reading is about a slum in Mumbai.
"Books are the quietest and most constant of friends; they are the most accessible and wisest of counselors, and the most patient of teachers."

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

On a road trip along the south coast of Australia, I was hanging out at a deserted beautiful white sand beach with crystal clear water, when a pod of dolphins came in and stuck around for half an hour. I snorkled with wild dolphins! Stunning.

I've been told I was fairly skilled at cooking and baking. Pralines are not as difficult to make as it may seem :)
