About Me

ABOUT ME

It was in April 2005 as international air touched me the first time and started to take major influence to my further life. Longer trips to Australia, South Korea, Brazil, South Africa, the USA and most parts of South East Asia can be seen a result to my travel-passion. In 2010, I decided on moving to South America; living, studying, working and crossing through the entire continent. Drinking Rum at the Malecon in Cuba, climbing volcanos in Nicaragua, strolling around in the Atacama Desert, dancing Samba at Brazil’s carnival and eating the biggest stakes in Argentina are just some minor points of a two year South America experience. Being back home for a while the foreign powers are pulling me back, therefore my next adventure will start in autumn with a move to Dublin…
Furthermore am I passionate about competitive sports and try to practice many of them as much as time allows.

PHILOSOPHY

Life takes us places we must go - to grow...
