CURRENT MISSION

Conquer the world with pancakes!

ABOUT ME

Energetic and go with the flow. I like to laugh a lot. Thinks Spongebob is awesome. Love learning new things and drinking coconut water. Also quite taken by the research-virus lately. The best is when you can use your research skills to come up with solutions for real world problems! I was working with a development NGO in Malta last year. Now back to studying. Generally I am a very happy person and a bit dreamy at times.

PHILOSOPHY

To decrease selfishness with every day that passes and to transform into Love eventually, spreading good energies and happiness to this world.

Music, Movies, and Books

Music: yes please!! Some artists/bands that I like: Anouk, Doe Maar, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Pink Floyd, Zuco 103, Manu Chao, Tim Maia, Ivete Sangalo, Elis Regina, Chico Buarque.. Type of music depends upon my mood. I love to go out to concerts and festivals.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Party in a little hippie village in the mountains in Portugal, dancing on top of the mountains, being close to the nature, looking at the endless sky and so many stars.. and in the morning the rising of the sun. It was an amazing party and experience!!!

Teach, Learn, Share

Teach: I could share my economics knowledge with you since I am being brainwashed for 2 years now ;) Actually there are some quite interesting theories of Behaviourial Economics; psychology meets economics. Perhaps you have heard about the prisoners dilemma? Economics is actually powerful knowledge which can be used in a good way to understand people, and give them incentives and to help people and actually REDUCE poverty =)

Learn: I have a guitar at home but I just know some basics which I taught myself so maybe you can teach me some more? Furthermore, delicious recipes of your country and photography advice are welcome as well ;)

Share: travel stories ofcourse (how I ended up on the Black List of Poland...) and I can bake you some amazing Dutch pancakes.
