CURRENT MISSION

travelling trough South East Asia

ABOUT ME

I am a shy person, no one would guess this but it is true. With age and experience I learned to be more confident and open. Traveling helps a lot regarding this! Most of the time happy and positive I also need sometimes quality time for myself, reading or just relaxing. Very spontaneous and a bit crazy sometimes, my way trough life was never the easy one. I took my time to figure out who I am and what I need to be happy. I change my job every year because I don't find anything I like, indeed I started the big travel of 8 months I am doing right now because I did not like my job and was stuck in my life. Traveling trough South East Asia did not give me any answers to the big questions so far but it is a life time experience!

PHILOSOPHY

What do you want in life? I think when you get to the age of 80 maybe you can give some answers to this lifetime question. My personal philosophy is trying hard to listen to what makes me happy, figure out what is really important in life and don't give up trying.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Many things left me very impressed during my travel, it is a hard choice to pick up two or three. Most of the time it is the people which awestruck me most. Kindness, hospitality, open hearted and smiling, I think Asians are the friendliest people I ever met.
