About Me

ABOUT ME

According to a friend I am easygoing, warm and funny. I enjoy good, deep and meaningful conversations but also appreciate a good sense of humor and everything silly and funny. I value respect, listening, empathy and being one's authentic self. CRINGE OVER COOL. Sometimes energetic, sometimes lazy. All vibes.
Socialism, environmentalism. In a continuing path of trying to live according to my beliefs, building a meaningful life and changing the system while feeling occational joy and inspiration.
Lover of dance, literature and mystery of life. Also feelings, tastes, smells and colors.

CURRENT (spring 2025):
Coming to Balkans and Greece 10th-29th of April. Staying atleast in Bosnia-Hertzegovina and Greece. Most likely also Albania, maybe Montenegro and North Macedonia. Into people, art, nature and losing myself to dance. I'd like to get to know you and your surroundings.
