About Me

ABOUT ME

girl next door.hitchhiker.backpacker with an all- time pull of distant places and everything in between :)

PHILOSOPHY

Don't walk in front of me, I may not follow;
don't walk behinde me, I may not lead;
just walk beside me and be my friend!

A. Camus

"Yesterday is history,
tomorrow just a mystery,
but today is a gift
and that's why it's called: PRESENT!"
