I am currently

Description

What motivates me and brings me happiness? Honestly just existing and living as much as possible in the present. Although I am not perfect at it, I try to remind myself to do it. Life is short, and therefore I want to experience as much as this earth has to offer with different cultures, places and knowledge! Attempting to put my own ego (because one can never fully remove it unfortunately), and trying to live a life in a way that shows compassion and humility. Kind of like a qualitative researcher.

More details about your skills

I would say my strongest side is being good with and around people, I have worked many years with people from working in different kindergardens, working in a psychiatric hospital and being a research assistant travelling to different schools working with children. This interest led me to recently finishing a bachelors in Psychology.

To the more handy side of things I would consider myself a great cook. Growing up in a persian household I have always been around a great variery of foods growing up, and taking this interest myself where I get easily drawn into learning new ways to cooking, and creating recipes. Furthermore I would say I am quite a tech savvy person, where I have had a great interest in computers and technology from a young age, always tinkering with stuff.

I am also easily adaptable where I can adjust to learning new things or being in different environments. Im not sure what they call it in English, but in Norway we call it being a "potato", which means that you are used to being "thrown" into different conditions and handling it. This has helped me having the variety of jobs that I have had throughout my life, and also with solo traveling around the world.

Age

25

What else ...

Im quite fond of adventures, maybe that has something to do with me playing a lot of video games growing up. I also enjoy peace and quiet, where I would see myself as a person not needing a whole lot of stimuli to find enjoyment in something, it really could be something as simple as sitting in nature listening to sounds. Kinda like Henry Thoreau did in "Walden" if you have read that book, you know ;)
