About Me

_______________________________________________________________________________________
-PLEASE READ BEFORE SENDING A REQUEST-
_______________________________________________________________________________________

I love to travel, even see the world if that's possible or at least at lot of it.
I enjoy listening to other peoples' travel stories or to hear about the cultural differences and learn more from other cultures trough other people and how the experienced it. Ofcource i'd like to see these differences as well, but when i can't travel hearing about them gives it a different perspective.

Gaming is also a hobby of mine, me and my brother started gaming when we were still kids (around the age of 6 i think) and we still do. If there's time we even try to play some multiplayer games with or against eachother.
i'm not only a fan of pc or console game but also boardgames or cardgames.
You're always welcome to catch a game with me if you'd like ;).

An other great interest of mine is art.
Art comes in a lot of froms, this can be books, movies, drawings, photography,...etc.
The art form that interests me the most is photography.
Sadly enough i don't really have any knowledge about it, yet.
But i'm always so fascinated about it, and i sometimes try to takes some good picture (for as far as i can do so).
If you can teach or tell me anything about photography i'd love to hear it ;).

You'd also like to keep this in mind:
