CURRENT MISSION

I'm living since march 2024 in a castle in Aarschot, Belgium. More than enough room to host a lot of people.
100m from the train station of Aarschot so also easy to go wherever you want.

Be myself, be with other people with other/same visions. Be in the world, not from the world.

ABOUT ME

I'm Lars, I am who I am, I really don't want to do what people or society tells me to do.
I live next to a student city in Belgium, named Leuven where I work as a handyman in a high school part time.

Next to that, I'm a professional photographer videographer.
I'm a member of an audiovisual artist collective, named "Up High Collective", where I also am a photographer, cameraman and VJ for live visuals.

But above these things I prefer to live OUTDOORS, to enjoy the nature! I love it to go to places where I am alone or just with friends and to sleep/eat/drink/swim/live outside.
I also love to hitchhike long distances.
I don't need a lot to be happy, because the best I already have: my faith in God ;) (but hey, I'm not an alien because of that)
And I'm sure He'll always give me what I really need and He'll always give me strength to go on!

PHILOSOPHY

I'm a very good listener, so I learn from other people and God. All of these things give me a strong opinion about life. I love my life a lot because I'm created as a unique, wonderful person by God... He is my father and I'll always try to listen to Him!

If Jesus Christ be God and died for me, then no sacrifice can be too great for me to make for Him. -CT Studd-
