CURRENT MISSION

Finding fun in the most unexpected places.

ABOUT ME

Since 2002, the first time I flew internationally (France, Italy, Monaco, Norway), I've become addicted to it, and have been unstoppable since. Somehow every time I leave Germany, I know we haven't seen the last of each other.

I can't sit still for too long, I am always ready for the next adventure! I'm never bored....but immensely amused by my own thoughts. Sometimes these thoughts get written down and stories are created of them. Sometimes they become so terribly skewed that all I can do is laugh at myself (often making people wonder what's wrong).

I'm looking forward to making connections all over the globe!

PHILOSOPHY

Every experience is valuable. Every thing facilitates some other thing. Be it an immediate result, a long-term lesson, or simply changing the course of events to lead a person down his path from point A to point B---even if having veered off to point 2A, and rushing off to C.

B facilitates a leave from A, which is necessary to achieve C. However, between B and C exist other components which seem to be of great necessity, although they only serve to connect the dots between B and C.
Everything is "for the sake of."

Do it for the sake of the experience.
