ABOUT ME
hmmm... i'd say i'm a quite extrovert and open-minded person. i love going out, travelling, music, festivals, good food (esp greek), nature, relaxing, meeting new people ... just having fun and enjoying life. moreover i like learning foreign languages although i can't speak that many :)
i don't really know why but i'm quite fascinated with scandinavia and great britain..
grown up close to munich (the very south end of germany), I study business and french in manchester, uk
PHILOSOPHY
don't know if i really have a personal philosophy. there's no need to think that much about the future... i just wanna enjoy my life, do whatever i want and see the world
