About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Learning to live happy

ABOUT ME

We've been together for 10 years now. We like traveling without strict route and schedule, learning more about ourselves, other people and the world.

We like to spend time with our hosts and surfers and we prefer good walk and talk rather then night at club. We also like cooking together or preparing something national for CS-rs.
I work as an auditor in telecom, my wife is photographer.

PHILOSOPHY

To learn as much as we can about world and humans, to find our way, to be happy and bring happiness to others, to learn how to think big and create.
