About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To have fun, save the planet and to be more out in nature sailing and hiking.

ABOUT ME

I have not quite grown up yet, and hopefully I never will.

The driving force is to have fun. I find most things interesting, especially when it comes to meeting other people and nature.

On of mye true passions in life is the ocean, which I spend a lot of time exploring with a sail boat and diving equipment.
