CURRENT MISSION

Respectful pleasure

ABOUT ME

I see myself as a cheerful, easy going, openminded, social person with a healthy sense of humour. This might sound a bit pompous, but this also says something about my standards.

I love exploring in general. I like roaming around a lot. I'm very interested in meeting new people, travelling, gigs and music festivals, literature, art, crafts and good food.

PHILOSOPHY

Be kind and enjoy life while respecting the world around you.
