CURRENT MISSION

Cycling from Athens back to Rotterdam on my touring bike. A tough ask for a first big solo adventure.

ABOUT ME

Hi everyone! My name is Alex and I am a Zimbabwean who is currently living and studying in Holland. Since I have come to this continent travelling has been my way of life. I love meeting new people and discovering culture in different countries. I am generally very relaxed and like taking things as they come... and talking is something I am told I am very good at :).

PHILOSOPHY

1 Look for the best in people
2 Try your hardest at everything you do but be humble and modest when the occasion arises
3 Remember to enjoy everything you do whether alone or with others
