​I am​ a dreamer.

​I am restless; I need to move, to travel, to discover, but to return. I love to laugh, because fits of laughter are micromoments free of worry and full of promise. I love to cook, to try new recipes, to forget them and to try them again for the second first time. I am a coffee-addict and wine-lover. 

I am intuitive; I trust my gut and it somehow never leads me astray. I am a scientist; I study the brain but follow the heart. I love how learning multiple languages opens windows onto the world and oneself. I love to garden, to believe in the future but live in the moment. I not-so-secretly want to be a farmer and florist, sometime soon.

Above and beneath all else, I have always been a writer. I fill notebooks with no respect for lines or margins. I can't stand endings, but know that, without them, there could never be new beginnings. I don't believe in fitting into boxes. I have a neurological trait called synesthesia: language is colored, gestured are noisy and objects have personalities! Besides my camera, I make an effort to always carry three things with me: courage, gratitude and a notebook. I am sometimes wary of the mysteries and uncertainties of life, but I believe in seasons and tides. I put my heart into everything, no matter how trivial it may seem. My sentimentality and empathy both guide me and hinder me, but I wouldn't trade them in for anything. 

​Thank you for being here.
