About Me

"It doesn’t interest me what you do for a living. I want to know what you ache for – and if you dare to dream of meeting your heart’s longing. It doesn’t interest me how old you are. I want to know if you will risk looking like a fool – for love – for your dreams – for the adventure of being alive." - ENFP-A personality type

"The joy of life comes from our encounters with new experiences, and hence, there is no greater joy than to have an endlessly changing horizon, for each day to have a new and different sun." - Into The Wild

Interesting (hope so) facts about me:

-grew up in Switzerland (Basel)

- did a "high school exchange year" in the US in South Carolina

- couch-surfed for 10 days in NYC (amazing experience)

-I backpacked for a month around Cambodia and Thailand by myself, after I've been thrown out of med school (don't worry I am back on it)

-I was living and working on a small island (Koh Rong Samloem) in Cambodia for a month, far away from the civilization I swam with glowing plankton and
bathed with elephants

- every year since I was born (yep) I spent at least 10 day in the summer in the forest with my grandparents in a small house without electricity or water

-I saw the white house, the statue of liberty, mardi gras in New Orleans, Fasnacht in Switzerland, Matterhorn, the Eiffel tower, the Coloseum, the Angkor Wat temples and many more

- Sunset over LA seen from a Pool in the Hollywood Hills , “legendary train” from LA to San Francisco,

- Sunset at the Taj Mahal, almost 50km bike tour in Jaipur India, Sleeping in the Thar desert near to Jaislamer, experiencing the vibe of Rishikesh

-hitchhiking 1800km around Lithuania and Latvia

- I love to draw and paint

- I am interested in the laws of our universe, spirituality, consciousness and dreams so overall a combination of philosophy, psychology, physics and medicine
