CURRENT MISSION

Teaching English in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia.

ABOUT ME

Hello! I'm 36, working in Saudi Arabia as an English teacher and remotely as a musical festival director and teacher trainer. Education, knowledge, music and experience are what drive me. Apart from food and books, travelling is my number 1 activity. I firmly believe in the power of communal work and experience. I love the world, I love people, and I want to soak up as much of it all as possible.

PHILOSOPHY

Well. I'd have to think about this one. But to answer the suggested questions:
I believe in the reality of living only one life, and therefore we need to take on every experience fully. The will to express and create also needs to be central to each human being. When we express and create communally, the whole becomes larger than the sum of its parts. I live my life fully, because that's the only reality I can imagine. The only "purpose" I follow is experience and kindness. Life is helluva difficult, let's make it easier for each other.
