About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Keep getting surprised

ABOUT ME

Easy goin' guy, knows how to enjoy life and is always up for a laugh.
I don't avoid having a good conversation (or a good drink) and I love adventure, real adventure!!

My favourite food is sushi :)

PHILOSOPHY

Through traveling evolve your body and mind; become a clock, compass and free spirit.
New experiences are the core of man's spirit, so keep doing new things and get your soul on that OYEAAAAHHH!!- frequency.

I try moving constantly to where I'm supposed to be, helping people where is needed and having a beer at every stop.

Think rightious, Speak rightious and Act rightious; but enjoy being a sinner as often as possible ;)

Be formless; be like water, you can't break it, shape it or pull it apart. Be like water, be Formless.

Everything comes to making choices, including happiness.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I was 19 when first leaving the Netherlands, living in South-Africa, Johannesburg for a year.

In Australia I have kayaked from shute harbour (Airly Beach) across the canal to Hook island with a mate. Took us 7 hours to reach the island, slept on a rock under the stars, next day 7 hours paddling back. We saw big turtles, dolphins up close and.. paddled through hammerhead breading grounds!

**Plenty more stories hehe

On my own I have hitchhiked from Katherine(NT) to Perth(WA), which is 4500km. Including the Gibb River Road.

Teach, Learn, Share

I'm rather someone who can sort out ones emotions and gives a better perspective on things. Next to that ive got a wide background in Martial Arts and love to exchange a few sparring sessions. I know this and that about this and that but rather learns from experienced people in whatever field they find themselves in.
