Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
create a life in Berlin
ABOUT ME
I laugh loudly and contagiously. I can be resentful. When I cross the street I tend to look in the wrong direction first. I hate the color of the tram in Heidelberg; yellow (I mean, I don't hate the color, but the combination tram/yellow). Another combination I don't like is yellow/violett by the way. I can't stand the sound of furniture being moved on carpet. I think it feels good to fall asleep with socks on your feet but not to wake up like that. I overestimate peoples sense for sarcasm. I buy cut flowers, I noticed I'm not able to care for potted plants. I want children, sometime. I'm glad to be a woman. I wanna be a man in my next life. I like the smell of basements and the air in the summer before it starts to rain. I like the winter sun. Things that scare me attract me. I don't drink sweet wine or eat white chocolate. I never cried in public when I was a child.

PHILOSOPHY
Live, love, travel... try to live life to the fullest (how cliché, i know, but it's what we should do!), appreciate the little things in life, take nothing for granted.
Never lose your humor and don't take yourself too seriously (the world doesn't!)
"We can know only that we know nothing. And that is the highest degree of human wisdom." -Leo Tolstoy (War and peace)
