About Me

CURRENT MISSION

explore, learn, love, laugh, share (but i dont like the word mission...all for spontaneity and distraction)

ABOUT ME

Likes: interesting conversation, questioning, traveling, new experiences, becoming sidetracked, tea, a good bottle of wine, bad jokes, beautiful places, the 'arts' (movies/cinema, art/galleries, concerts, plays, etc.), laughing, creativity

Dislikes: Close mindedness, romantic comedies

PHILOSOPHY

Never judge.

Every experience has something to teach you.

Je suis tout ça. Je suis lui et lui, mais lui et lui aussi, et puis lui, lui je ne veux pas décevoir. Je suis elle, et elle aussi. Je suis français, espagnol, anglais, danois. Je suis pas un, mais plusieurs. Je suis comme europe, toute ça. Je suis un vrai bordel.

Time weighs down on you like an old, ambiguous dream. You keep moving, trying to slip through it. But even if you go to the ends of the earth, you wont be able to escape it. Still, you have to go there--to the edge

--Haruki Murakami, Kafka on the Shore
