About Me

ABOUT ME

I'm an open-minded, easy-going guy. I currently travel around the world to explore different cultures to learn, do and experience new things like studying Spanish, taking art classes, volunteering for Burning Man, writing a children's book ...

PHILOSOPHY

Don't dream your life but live your dreams
