Discover the best bakery in the world by trying desserts in every country I travel to.
ABOUT ME
I hope my friends would say I'm: open-minded, adventurous, positive & spontaneous :)
PHILOSOPHY
Every day is a new adventure and it takes more effort to be angry than to just smile and move on.

-sharing music
-listening to/sharing jokes in different languages
-collecting postcards & coasters
-Meeting people who I realize I'm connected to in some crazy, fateful way
-Learning how to say "I love you" in as many languages as possible
In general, I love:
