CURRENT MISSION

To make a living as a travel journalist

ABOUT ME

I am blessed to come from a wealthy, safe, secure and rather dull country. However, ever since I was a child I was also equipped with a deepfelt urge to see the world, so I spend what little money I have on doing just that. This year I will venture out to see if I can combine my love of travel with another love I have: That of writing.

PHILOSOPHY

It all balances out in the end in the cosmic perspective, so don't sweat the small stuff!

Music, Movies, and Books

Looove reading and music. Have an eclectic taste in music, but main categories are rock and pop, with a hint of soul, r&b, disco, even country!, classical... Enjoy a plethora of authors, but the great classical world famous ones tend to have become popular for a reason. Lately been profoundly influences by nothing less than a dead on chick lit-book: Elixabeth Gilbert's Eat, Pray, Love. Which is what I will be doing very soon! Well, maybe not exactly praying, but definitely looking into my spiritual sides (if I have any!).

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Snorkling at the Great Barrier Reef, Australia. Stunning experience!
