Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
Building Fruitarky an incredible, edible, colorful, vegan, diverse place on Mother Earth
ABOUT ME
Does most things slightly different.
Don't like people that don't read my profile, those better book a nice hotel...
PHILOSOPHY
Color the planet. Grow, eat, live fruit.
Lead by example.
It is better to regret something that you have done than to regret something you have not done.
Leave a place better than you found it.

Interests
My main focus is on developing a true healthy and sustainable lifestyle and place to live (veganism, permaculture, natural farming, diy, carpentry) that I call Fruitarky.
I have a broad interest but I will never be far from music (electronic styles like dubstep, nubreaks, drum & bass, electro and a wide range of alternative music). Been lucky that I grew up with many styles that I still love (punk, new wave, ska, reggae, old skool rave, grunge, dub, trip hop and more).
Furthermore: photography, graphic design, anthropology, biology & evolution, science, and more

Music, Movies, and Books
Movies: Repoman (when I see Otto I see me) but I have lost interest in watching movies, I watch a documentary occasionally.
Music: see Interests
Books: eye opening books, look forward to order and read the 50+ books that I have on a wish list
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
The Brokopondo lake in Suriname, the Grand Canyon, being a drifter in southern Europe and moving to Paraguay.
Teach, Learn, Share
Teach: philosophy from a natural perspective
Learn: what I teach, growing your own food, all kinds of technical stuff (web design, graphic design, car repair, sketchup, tool and machine making, house building), artistic stuff, biology-evolution and last but not least Spanish.
Share: this Earth and protect and restore a piece of it; what I teach and what I have learned.
