Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
Livin', Laughin', Lovin all ova the world
ABOUT ME
I'm travelling by myself, doing a little soul searching, figuring out how I fit into this big world. It's so easy to get caught up in the stress of life/work/whatever your social expectations are, and worry too much about really little things. I just wanna find the big love in everything. AWWWWWW!
After the Olympic games in Beijing, I think I am now one third Brazilian and one third Dutch, OLE!
PHILOSOPHY
I live for connecting with people, there is nothing like that feeling when you share a true open and honest connection with someone who was just another person on the street till you looked in their eyes or shared a story or a truth or a laugh.
I honestly want to laugh my way across the world - I cam really enjoy myself, but tend to be a little serious and want to make every day just about letting it flow, YA KNOW?
