ABOUT ME

Wow... where do I start??

Groing up I've always been kind of a wonderer, daydreamer, ... curious about a lot of things...

And that hasn't changed...

I love getting to know new people, joke around and have a great time...

... I'm always in search for interesting ways to challenge myself and grow as a person... Put goals for myself and go full-hearted for them...

I've got an insane "travel-bug" that drives me

In general... I'm just very much in love with life

PHILOSOPHY

I'm a "treasure hunter" on a constant adventure to create beautiful memories...

... that might include meeting new great people I connect with, having interesting discussions, experiencing an interesting "romance", having new insights, ...

I'm a very happy and thankful person who believes in simplicity and enjoying the "small" things in life...

On the other hand, it also fullfills me as a person to take blocks of time and use those to work hard towards a worthwhile goal I set for myself...

Music varies a lot on my mood: I love Bob Dylan, Jimi hendrix, the doors, ... Right now I enjoy listening to The Kooks, ...

... Sometimes latin music like salsa music or something, ...

... a lot of times I'm in a Jazz mood or mood to listen to Beethoven piano sonatas...

So a lot of different stuff :)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I'm in general very much in love with life... It's hard to isolate moments... Some great moments with good friends and moments with fantastic women come to mind though...

Teach, Learn, Share

I love this part of the profile... it also kind of overwhelms me... This is what I mean:

I can teach about what I described in my interests...

But we're in the information age... you can 'educate' yourself about anything you want in no-time...

... what you REALLY learn from other people are very subtle things; depending on their mindset, the way they live their life, their lust for life and enthousiasm, ...

And those things only reveal itself after two people interact...
