About Me

CURRENT MISSION

My life is a journey to discover cultures, to understand souls and mostly to live each moment fully.

ABOUT ME

I am a creative, passionate and fun loving person. I love meeting new people, people from different cultures and walks of life. I am curious about what makes people tick, what builds communities and how society evolves over time.

PHILOSOPHY

... and so the universe conspires to put us on a path, the path we need, the path we may not always want and often struggle against, but the path to happiness ...
