CURRENT MISSION

To feel alive.

ABOUT ME

Was born in 1993 to this planet. Believes that her home is somewhere else but still grabs hold of hope every morning. Studies theology but tries not to take life too seriously. Is happiest on the road to somewhere, immersed in afro dance or nocturnal conversations, and when feeling God's presence and ultimate peace in winter nights, enchanting gigs or the Eucharist.

PHILOSOPHY

"It is for freedom that Christ has set us free." (Galatians 5:1)
