About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Studying at Uni

ABOUT ME

I am a guy form Cape Town, South Africa living in Denmark the last 8 years. Currently I am studying towards my second degree at Aarhus University - Herning Campus while working at Pressalit as a Product Development Engineer running special projects
Before that I lived in the UK. Spent 10 months in Newquay surfing and then 4 months in London living in Camden Town.

I am a really big outdoors person. Love being out in nature and have been on some pretty awesome missions around Scandinavia. http://youtu.be/ud5UH0Qo0Tg

I am super social and love a really good party. I should probably act my age more but fuck it, there is a chance I might die of boredom then. As my dad says; "30's are the new 20's! Hell yeah!

PHILOSOPHY

You cant make a comeback if you havnt been anywhere.

If you want to walk fast walk alone. If you want to walk far walk together.

Do not go where the path might lead. Go instead where there is no path, and leave a trail.
