ABOUT ME
I am really addicted to music, love all types of sport, start loving traveling, and for most love 'if's' and 'but's' in linguistic sense. You see the contradiction? Sometimes I'm chaotic, but mostly I'm easy living and laid back. The thing that I hate most is false accusing. Everything else seems to be part of life.
PHILOSOPHY
Do what you want: Say yes if you want to, say no if you want to, but be honest.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
South Africa, Paris and New York. How big do you want to have the contradictions? I felt like a big spender in the Big Apple, and felt so hopeless in Cato Ridge. Paris is always worth visiting, even as an in between snack. Just feel at home.
Cato Ridge (South Africa) is always on my mind: I've been there for three weeks, working at a AIDS-hospice. My first steps on the continent of Africa, but what a culture-shock. How strange is it to witness real poverty by your own eyes? Especially the antagonism between black and white (the apartheid). Although our job and mission was ‘help’, it’s astonishing that after all the care people still ask for your shoes when you leave. On the other hand, our asses also sit down in a safari-jeep, and on other days kids are dying just a few meters from you. Also went to ‘Drakensbergen’ (the mountains), brought a visit to the local homeless-kids in Pietermaritzburg and enjoyed some brays. One big contradiction.
