CURRENT MISSION

Meet new people, visit new places, enjoy the world.

ABOUT ME

I'm basically someone who tries to be kind and empathise with others as much as I can. My interests include meditation, languages, playing music, reading, climbing, swimming, cycling, crossfit and pondering stuff.

PHILOSOPHY

In progress...

So far - compassion and friendliness seem reasonably to be two of the most important things in life.

The rest - who knows?
