About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To be happy

ABOUT ME

Ok. Let's begin.
I would consider myself very creative.
I love road trips and walking around barefoot.
I wear hippy clothing.
I drink green tea.
Sushi is my favourite food group.
Surfing instructor.
Philosopher.
Explorer.
Adrenaline seeker.
I love animals and nature.
I also have a pet turtle named Franklin.

I work as a travel photographer for Princess Cruises.
My lifestyle is quite nomadic. I spend 10 months a year at sea, exploring different continents and creating valuable friendships with people from many different nationalities working onboard the ship.

My dream would be to run a photography project in Africa which benefits the lives of a community or endangered animals.

PHILOSOPHY

Good food, good music, good people, good life!
