About Me

CURRENT MISSION

you must be the change you wish to see in the world

ABOUT ME

i am easygoing and friendly, i love life, fun, ppl, adrenaline, and beautiful places. im sometimes funny but i can always laugh at myself. i get so much energy from getting to know ppl. i love talking about life the universe and everything with new and old friends, sharing ideas, learning, or just joking around. if im excited i am unstoppable and have so much energy, but i can also do lazy pretty well! totally spontaneous, independent and often late (tho i am working on this!). very little stresses me out.

PHILOSOPHY

for me, life is all about relationships and adventure. i am constantly learning more about life from everyone and everything around me. i think its so important to love everyone you meet in life, love every situation you are in, love where you are at in life no matter what. Jesus did this better than anyone, and i reckon he is the most amazing, excellent and wise dude to have ever walked on this crazy earth of His.

Interests

general stupidity, laughing and having fun. partying and going nuts on the dance floor. i love traveling and the new experiences the world provides. trying new food and cooking. any kind of outdoor/extreme/adrenaline/adventure sport... ill try anything. i especially love climbing, waterskiing, snowboarding, canyoning, and just hanging out in incredible places, preferably around a fire with good food, good company, and a good single malt.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

hanging out up the mast of a 40m tallship off the coast of australia, watching the sun rise as bow-riding dolphins danced below

jumping off a cliff in the blue mountains, attached to a 50m rope that we tied to a rock and going for one hell of a swing... i needed a change of pants.

Teach, Learn, Share

I love to see how things work and fix them. i like to teach people about ropes and hanging around on them.
