About Me

CURRENT MISSION

"Comming to America" >.< Traveling trough CA, meeting (funny) new/inspiring people, some soul searching ;)

ABOUT ME

I just quit my study, just before the very end...even though i had good grades and results, but i got stuck and i realized i wasn't happy with the system i was in..so "i got ants in the pants" and decided to only focus on the beautiful, fun and the joyful things in life :D...
I've always wanted to visit California, I've always had this "romantic" picture of it in my head of how it would be like to travel/road trip trough it...to see the beautiful rich and diverse nature...the beaches, the surfers...the art, the wines, the hippies <3..and now i'm finally going!! So i'm very excited to meet new people, locals and other travelers!

I love to laugh and have fun!! and of course people who enjoy that 2! I love baking pies, good food, sun, beaches, funny stories/experiences, bonfires, getting to know (new) people, about other habits, learning about other cultures ..

PHILOSOPHY

Go for whatever makes you happy!!
Treat people the way you want to be treated ;)
Enjoy the ride!
