About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To enjoy every day and to find beauty in everything and everyone I meet. My mission for this summer: to explore British Columbia and Toronto and all treasures it has to offer: people, nature, adventure...

ABOUT ME

I am quite adventurous and independent woman. I love outdoor activities - hiking, camping, via ferrata climbing, biking and a bit of rockclimbing and sailing (I'm not good in the last two but I love it). I am very interested in wild nature and native cultures / indigenous people (cultural anthropology is my hobby). I enjoy quiet momets meditating, but I can also party and dance all night.
I'm vegetarian / vegan, non-smoker, don't like beer but love good wine.
I also practise Japanese art of archery (Kyudo).

PHILOSOPHY

That which does not kill me, can only make me stronger.
Plan for the worst, hope for the best.
Learn your whole life from everything and everyone around you.
You always get what you deserve, good or bad.

Music, Movies, and Books

I love Terry Pratchett's books, Tim Burton's films. And I love stories about strong female characters.
All kinds of music as long as the musicians put their heart into it: Classical, ethno and world, rock, punk...
At the moment I am big fan of Zoie Palmer and her cat.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I've done and seen a lot of amazing stuff, but helping someone in critical situation (and possibly saving their life) was the best thing I've ever done.

Teach, Learn, Share

I am no expert but I guess I could teach basisc of Salsa dancing and a bit of indoor rockclimbing.
And I want to learn everything life has to offer.
