About Me

CURRENT MISSION

I want to meet interesting people, get to know a foreign culture and see the world

ABOUT ME

Love traveling, meeting new people and cultures, hanging out, like to talk about all kind of stuff, but often with a humorous distance. Not taking everything too seriously, including self.

I also like long walks and walking is one of my favourite ways of discovering new cities... with a lot of coffee breaks.

PHILOSOPHY

"Well, it's nothing very special. Try to be nice to people, avoid eating fat, read a good book every now and then, get some walking in, and try and live together in peace and harmony with people of all creeds and nations."
Monty Phyton's Meaning of Life
