CURRENT MISSION

Recorrer (partes de) Mexico en bici de Nov. 2016 hasta Mar. 2017!:-)

ABOUT ME

As you can see on my pictures, I like to be on the road and meet people. Beyond that, i love to do the following things: cycling, hiking and other ways to enjoy the nature, having a beer with friends, reading books, playing the guitar, going to music festivals and liveshows. I'd call myself an open-minded person and appreciate if you are as well.

PHILOSOPHY

Don't just make plans, ideas and dreams. Put them into reality!

Doing stuff is a lot more important to me than having stuff...

I read that on a toilet door in Santa Cruz, Bolivia *g* but I really liked it:
Ama a la Pachamama! porque todos somos parte de ella.

Another favourite: Lieber mit dem Fahrrad zum Strand als mit dem Mercedes zur Arbeit.
