" My dream is to tackle social problems with art and creativity projects. The project Jambo Sanaa is one step on the way. "
Jambo Sanaa means "Hello Art" in Swahili, the national language in Tanzania.
At Kayanga Primary School I am empowering children through creative education (art workshops) in order for them to live a happy and fullfilled life.
What I love ...
Hip Hop and House are my faves ;-)
I love the lakes in Bavaria!
My project in Tanzania
... where it's warm and the beach isn't far...
I love classical singing!
Wherever I am, be it London, Munich or Tanzania, I love to discover my surroundings by cycling
I love to have fun with children :)
I am constantly organising exhibitions in Munich to spread the word about Jambo Sanaa and show visitors the beautiful artworks from Tanzania and Germany.
I wanna live in the mountains some day!
This year I've been to Costa Rica, Nicaragua, Panama, Uganda, Kenya, Tanzania, Italy ... more to come :)
... around the world!
Big passion!
