About Me

CURRENT MISSION
Follow my passions and to be an explorer, not a tourist

ABOUT ME
Bookworm, Metalhead, Gamer, Geek, Otaku
I worked for big corporates developing their software over the last 8 years. Now I leave that life behind and see how good am I at being my own boss

While travelling, one of my top priorities is the local food
