About Me

CURRENT MISSION

"i´ve decided to be happy- that´s better for the health" (voltaire)

ABOUT ME

falling in love with everyday´s life!:)

All about me?!
in just this small little space here?impossible. trying to discover the magic of this complex called world, playing,singing,laughing, living, music,friends, travelling, observing, studying, having friends and new people around, wandering around, a girl trying to find her perfect place in this world.. but even being on this trail makes me happy..
might sound ludicrous- but I´d call it idealistic:)
Currently working and living in Linz, after 9 great years in Vienna!

PHILOSOPHY

Don´t wonder why people go crazy- wonder why they don´t !!

Life is not measured by the number of breaths we take, but by the moments that take our breath away!!(how true is that!)

Also rain is just liquid sunshine :)

Why don´t we try to be like birds sometimes?!?

Even a busted watch works right two times a day!!
