about me.

oh so quiet is a blog about my life as a twentysomething and things that inspire me, excite and challenge me.
I'm a proud theatre nerd and literature geek at heart and in profession - born and raised in Vienna I've studied and worked in London and New York.

the title of this blog is indeed inspired by Björk's unusual song of this very name which somehow mirrors my personality quite fittingly.
an introvert who goes to seek a 'Great Perhaps' - to quote John Green or rather the last words of

François Rabelais. 

i'm an obsessively curious person by nature, on a quest. while wondering about life's questions oftentimes getting caught up in melancholia, self doubt and too much worrying. but life is a joyous venture. it's about feeling alive. 

this blog is about my inspirations, my creative adventures as i go on trying to figure things out. as a writer, a theatre director, a woman, a human.

one of my favourite quotes from one of my favourite books:

“Life is a series of pulls back and forth. You want to do one thing, but you are bound to do something else. Something hurts you, yet you know it shouldn't. You take certain things for granted, even when you know you should never take anything for granted.A tension of opposites, like a pull on a rubber band. And most of us live somewhere in the middle.”
