About Me

CURRENT MISSION

I try every morning to wake up in awe of the life around me. I hope to always view the world form the eyes of a child.

ABOUT ME

You, me, a cup of tea and you'll find out quite a bit about me. You, me and the open road - you shall find out the rest.

PHILOSOPHY

"Oh wait, but what if we add exciting to the equation?"

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I build robots for fun (okay, yes, it's also my job)
Climbed the Tatra mountains
Visited Chianti (where the wine comes from) and was chased by wild boars in the forest there.
Visited the northernmost point on the mainland in Nordkapp and watched the aurora lights. Also Santa. He was in shorts.
Roamed around Iceland for a time.
Surfed with 30+ people at a guys place in Las Vegas around New Years.. the old Vegas proverb still applies.

Teach, Learn, Share

Don't stay afraid. Fear is useful, but succumbing to it is not. You regret 100% of the chances you didn't take.

What I Can Share with Hosts

My (sometimes edgy) sense of humour.
I can repair a variety of things.
I'm really good at pointing out a third thing in a list...
