CURRENT MISSION

Living life with your heart in it

ABOUT ME

Nature is close to my heart. A beautiful sight is a summer morning with a mist rising from a hay field, birds singing, scent filling your nose.
I like walking in a forest, observing nature, picking up berries.
It's also sometimes nice to hang out in the city, observe people, chill in the park, maybe play some music and take it easy and have a laugh.

PHILOSOPHY

I appreciate the philosophy of North-american indians. The earth and other people should be treated with respect.
I love the way music goes beoyond boundaries and makes people feel touched.
To meet new cultures is to make this globe more decent for us and to see that the same kind of heart beats in every one of us.
