About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Learn something new everyday

ABOUT ME

Easy-going guy hoping to travel the world, experience different cultures, meet people and make a lot of friends along the way.

PHILOSOPHY

...so get out there and mess around with your friends,
ramble out yonder and explore the forests, encounter
the grizz, climb the mountains. Run the rivers,
breathe deep of that yet sweet and lucid air, sit
quietly for a while and contemplate the precious
stillness, that lovely, mysterious and awesome space.
Enjoy yourselves, keep your brain in your head and
your head firmly attached to your body, the body
active and alive, and I promise you this much: I
promise you this one sweet victory over our enemies,
over those deskbound people with their hearts in a
safe deposit box and their eyes hypnotized by desk
calculators. I promise you this: you will outlive the
bastards. (Edward Abbey)
