Description
Hi all!
I think I'm a quite enthusiastic person who loves to build relationships with other people. Thus, I like to listen to life stories of others and share a nice and insightful conversation with them.
I'm a nature lover, being a scout since childhood and still trying to find time throughout the year to sleep under the stars (or, honestly, under the leaves of trees in the forest - let's be real here!). Even though the sea is quite nice for sure, I definitely am more of a mountain person, hiking through landscapes than being roasted by laying on the beach for hours and days.
I love to learn new things, doing things for the first time, diving into other cultures and broadening my horizon this way. Although I learned my whole life (who doesn't?) I can't get enough of it, so I'm really striving for these moments of realisation when everything's just coming together and you earned a new perspective on life!
Being in companionship with others enriches my life, especially if they're not only nice to be around but if they also know how to respect personal boundaries and the desire of being for yourself from time to time as well.
I like honesty and open communication because this way you know what to deal with instead of guessing what could be the case. I like it, if adults are practising it, but this is also something I like about children. I'm studying to become a primary school teacher right now, so I like to be in direct interaction with kids for a significant part of the day! That makes me happy most of the times, too. ;-)

What else ...
I'm kind of an active person. I'm doing voluntary work in various associations (mostly connected to organic production of vegetables and reducing food waste), I like to go swimming, hiking and cooking together with others. I also like to read from time to time or make music (singing, playing the guitar/guitalele).
Ah, yeah, one more thing... I'm into movies and tv series, even though I'm not always able to find time for that. I would not dare to present my favorite movie of all time here in public, but if you ask me in a personal message (or conversation), I'll think about that. It really is a question more or less impossible for me to answer! :)
And just to make it clear:
Even though prejudices and stereotypes are strongly anchored in our society and ourselves, I am constantly trying to be less influenced by these. Devaluing people on the basis of various discrimination factors like racism, classism, sexism, etc. is nothing I want to take part in neither I want it in my life.
