About Me

Well I'm Adam! You probably read that already.. I'm from Cambridgeshire, UK. I've just started another adventure living in Zandvoort, Holland and working in Amsterdam. I have lived in Valencia for four years, and Greece for one year. Im not so much into cities, I love nature. I love travelling, new experiences and challenges, and just spreading love and good vibes! Love learning languages, music, meeting new people, getting out of the comfort zone most people live in these days. I love the unknown, exploring a place I don't know, travelling by my own steam (Bus number 11!)

PHILOSOPHY

i live life by the day, don't like to look too far ahead in the future, some people may see this as immature or unwise i guess, but what do they know? I don't like to complain, there is too much bad shit in this world to complain about stupid things, and remember, there is always hope.

Interests

I Love travelling.. obviously! Manu Chao once said "Being able to travel is the best school of life." I like this quote :) I love surfing, music (any types from anywhere in the world, but especially old folk and rock (huge stones fan) reggae, rock and ska!), writing, cooking, walking. I like doing random things and being spontaneous, having a laugh, singing, playing guitar, helping people! I love nature, especially the sea, i love learning about the earth, im also a history geek too :D

Music, Movies, and Books

Movies: Into the Wild, The Big Blue,
Books: My favourite book always seems to be the last one I've read. But I love El Zorro - Isabel Allende, The Alchemist, The Convert - Jose manuel fajardo, and a lot of factual/historical and travel books, but of course Michael Palin (being a geographer)
Music: REGGAE ADDICT!! Jack johnson and Bob marley keep me sane in this crazy crazy world =) and of course rock and ska, Ichillout, acoustic, music from around the world (arabic, turkish, greek, african.. anything!)
