About Me

CURRENT MISSION

New York City

ABOUT ME

Hmm, not sure what I should write here. I am a nice friendly guy. I am geeky, but not socially awkward. ;) I like movies, music, comics, manga/anime, videogames (multiplayers, so I can make people cry when I destroy them ;D)

I have a degree in photography and studied Japanese for a year. Currently I am working as a freelance photographer.

If you have a question, feel free to ask.

PS. My veghetti is the best you will ever eat!

PHILOSOPHY

I live my life becouse life is freaking awesome! You can nag and cry about all the things you don't have or can't do. But in the end nothing is not possible, just try, fail and try again untill you succeed.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Most of my musicfestival experiences where great. I lost my heart in Lisboa, the old streets, the smell of the sea. It was an awesome experience to be there.
