CURRENT MISSION

balancing the Dean Moriarty side of me with the normality of everyday life

ABOUT ME

A part from being born in Boston, Massachussetts, growing up in Denmark as the son of a danish father and german/english mother, I am a very easy going, smiling person who loves meeting new people, drinking beers, hang around with friends, listening and dancing to minimal techno or freaking out to my pop and rock'roll records, go to the cinema, watching my favourite football team, going to musicfestival, hiking or just relaxing with a book in the bed.

Other than that I'm a honest, sensitive, independent, outgoing, analysing, reflective unemployed young man, who is looking for a job. Recession please go away! But then I ironically remind myself of that Morrissey line from an old Smiths song:
"I was looking for a job, and then I found a job
and heavens know I'm miserable now"

Update: I now have a job where I ironically is working with unemployment policies and heavens know it's better than beeing unemployed :)
