Overview
About Me
Hello World, I'm light-hearted and joyful, easy-going, humble and a child at heart. Sometimes I have my head in the clouds, but I'm always grounded. I'll like you as soon as you make me laugh. I lived in Shanghai for half a year, I would't say I'm an experienced traveler but I try my best to become one.
My main interests are probably sports and food and anything with dogs involved, except food, I'm not into dog meat actually. In terms of meat I don't eat pork because I love (living) pigs so much and I dream of keeping on as pet in my garden once.

Music, Movies, and Books
Music: There are so many musicians and titles I like, so far I didn't really determined one genre for myself. When I work out I'm listening to Eminem, Linkin Park, Jay-Z or Kendrick Lamar. When I want to have my brain switched off I turn on Katy Perry and when I want it to reboot I listen to Bon Iver. I adore Bon Iver. When I'm clubbing I like to dance to Beyonce. I'm so mainstream.
Besides that I'm a concert-goer, in my Hometown I'm really committed into the lokal singer-songwriter scene (although I cannot do one of it myself haha) and support friends with organizing gigs and all that stuff. I enjoy going to smaller or bigger concerts, especially open air, enjoying drinks and freedom.
In terms of books I prefer non-fictional genre except from the Lord of the Rings series and Harry Potter, the source of my childhood. Yet, my favorite authors are James Frey and Haruki Murakami, my favorite books are "Bright Shiny morning" (James Frey), "South Of The Border, West Of The Sun"(Murakami) and "Their Eyes Were Watching God" (Zora Neale Huston)
I'm a terrible movie-watcher. I always need someone to spoil and prompt to me because I'm afraid that my favorite characters die surprisingly. I need to be prepared for that, haha. Although I like movies a lot, I prefer to addict myself to serials. So far I've been addicted to Lost, 24, Dexter, House of Cards, Ripper's Street, Sex and the City, Gossip Girl (Although I'm over this now) and currently Game of Thrones. Afterwards I'm looking forward to Downtown Abbey. Although this seems like a lot I'm not much of a TV-watcher.
Quotes I liked:
"No matter how dreary and grey our homes are, we people of flesh and blood would rather live there than in any other country, be it ever so beautiful. There is no place like home" L. Frank Baum; The Wonderful Wizard Of Oz
"The Tin Woodman knew very well he had no heart, and therefore he took great care never to be cruel or unkind to anything." L. Frank Baum; The Wonderful Wizard Of Oz
Motto:
Have courage and be kind.
