CURRENT MISSION

The only good thing about so much global disturbances is the slow dawning that we're ALL IN THIS TOGETHER

ABOUT ME

We are a family and tend to host individuals as well as families. I am anthropologist working in the NGO sector, mainly within the areas of sustainable development, community building, social inclusion, refugees ... while my husband Goran works as a curator in a nearby Art Museum. We have two children,a boy (2010) and a girl (2012), while Goran's daughter (2004) joins us often, so our house is always a fun place.

Music, Movies, and Books

Always and forever fascinated by names such as Jim Jarmusch, Wim Wenders, Aki Kaurismaki, Agnes Varda, Jiri Menzel, Federico Fellini, Woody Allen, Mike Leigh .. plus contemporary independent cinematographies from all over the world ...Music and books come in layers, too. Fundaments which come to mind are Susan Sontag, Camus, Eco, Patti Smith, Walter Benjamin, Jergovic ... but more and more have been added through the years.
