About Me

CURRENT MISSION

finding the important questions.... sometimes answers

ABOUT ME

A green rabbit is sitting on my Dutch dictionary and doesn´t let me study. so i do a couple of handstands against the wall which i am not afraid of anymore.
analysing this place and me in it sometimes feels like a strange error, but even more strangely I am happy here. After studying contemporary dance in Berlin and moving to France and walking through the Palestinian desert I settled in Nijmegen to study cultural anthropology and development studies. I love singing and discussing in the kitchen.
I can hear them playing the drums upstairs.
Martin Buber said 'All real living is meeting' I agree with him. It is what makes me feel the most vivid. Sometimes you can loose yourself in other people, people have the beautiful power to irritate your everyday habits, sometimes you can feel their rhythm and travel through their minds. Meeting people is awesome :)
I am going upstairs. I can never resist drumming.
