About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Explore the world and enjoy life! YOOL (You Only have One Life)

ABOUT ME

its time for me to relax and enjoy the world aroud..
Look forward to a lot of travel, a lot of meeting new and interesting people and a lot of new experiences..
Love the outdoors, love reading and love trying new things. The biggest regret I have is that sleep takes away lot of my time.. wish I could sleep less and enjoy more!

PHILOSOPHY

YOOL (You only have one life)!
What doesnt break you, makes you stronger..
Make mistakes- they are the best way to learn...but make sure you learn from them
Dont judge a book by its cover
and most importantly: Its impossible to plan "Life"- take it as it comes and enjoy the surprises it throws!
