About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Learning Japansese and doing what I want to do

ABOUT ME

I am German but I have grown up in various places like the Philippines and the French-Swiss boarder. I love languages and I love traveling. It's that simple actually. That is why I study international relations. One of my favorite things about traveling is meeting random people and attempting to understand their vision. I love sincere people. I like good food and cooking. I also like to party once in a while or also thrice in a while. I love music of course, too but all that could apply to anyone really.

PHILOSOPHY

I think that it is very important to be yourself and to be comfortable with that. I think that your one freedom stops where someone else's freedom starts.I think that by traveling you can find yourself because others will reflect how you really are and not how they class you/how they have a fixed idea about you. don't be too serious, it doesn't always help. don't work too but find what fulfills you.
