About Me
CURRENT MISSION
Hitchhiking Poland - Paksitan: check! Now: Mother since December!
ABOUT ME
With burning energy and tons of passion I try to challenge myself as much as possible, simply by just doing what I dream of. Right now that means I've recently finished my latest mission: To hitchhike from Poland to India with Robin who I am very much in love with, and we got our daughter Kima in December 2011 <3! We are currently not hosting at all since we are quite short on space and new on the life as parents, but will hopefully continue in the future as our baby gets older!
Practical info: I eat mostly vegetarian food.

Music, Movies, and Books
I like Gary Vaynerchuck and Waris Dirie and the Swedish author Vilhelm Moberg a lot, but generally I spend more time producing than consuming.
Love watching The Wire!
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Me and my fiancée hitchhiked from Poland the the Indian border recently, absolutely fantastic. I traveled alone in Africa two years ago and became very passionate about Ethiopia, Somalia and Sudan! I also worked as an au pair in NY, and went helpExing in France where I got to help constructing houses etc.
Teach, Learn, Share
I have numerous stories from hitchhiking and traveling in Africa, and working in the U.S!
