About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To take over the world ;). More seriously to simply broaden my horizon, try out new things, get new experiences and get to know new locations and people.

ABOUT ME

I am an easy going somewhat shy and introvert guy who can be fun to be with. I like to go my own way. But also enjoy being social and on ocasion to try out new things.

There are a lot of places i still want to visit someday. Fortunately my current employer gives me a lot of spare time which makes it easier to go on vacation a couple of times per year.

PHILOSOPHY

Live and let live mostly. And a 'you only live once' so should try to enjoy life as much as you can philosophy.
