About Me

CURRENT MISSION

racing and studying, for now...

ABOUT ME

I am an engineer and amateur triathlete, and currently discovered weightlifting. I like trying new things and taking up challenges or do weird things, out of a whim, like making balls out of maggots and play with them, or swimming in a half-ice half water lake, or something ;-). I am very active, great sense of humor, inquisitive, energetic and eager to travel the world, (money permits)...

PHILOSOPHY

Just be yourself
