About Me

CURRENT MISSION

I am really trying to figure this one out.

ABOUT ME

Me and my girlfriend will leave in September 2014 for a big (lenghth unknown)trip. Our first destination is New York City. From there, more or less, everything is open.

PHILOSOPHY

I guess there is some truth in the following: It takes courage to become who you really are.

Music, Movies, and Books

Red Hot Chili Peppers and NERD are two of my favorite bands. I am interested in different genres. Fight club and Pulp Fiction are movies I really like. My favorite novel is 1984 by George Orwell. I enjoying reading The Economist magazine as an information source about what is going on in the world. The Wire is one of my favorite tv shows.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Homestay in Sapa, Vietnam. Ziplining in Laos. Angkor Wat temples Cambodia. Mountainbiking in Scotland. Machu Picchu in Peru was really amazing. Snorkeling with sharks and turtles on the Galapagos Islands was unforgettable.

Teach, Learn, Share

I used to be a professional goalkeeper (soccer/football). So I think I am capable of improving the goalkeeper skills of others.
For quit some time I really want to learn how to surf. But I would also like to learn how to dance salsa, to speak Spanish and learn to play an instrument.
