About Me

CURRENT MISSION

I hope to see a lot op places & people & cultures. Because travelling is my most intense & clearest reality.

ABOUT ME

I am almost 40, but people always guess me much younger, not because I would have a baby face, but because of my lifestyle.
Since one year together with my girlfriend Malinka.
No kids.
Much more to say, but to less time (although this is a good discription of myself)

PHILOSOPHY

Life is not measured by the number of breaths we take, but by the moments that take our breath away.
Life is a journey
Seize the day
Live your dreams
Live to ride ride to live
Ballooning is the most exiting thing you can do with your pants on
etc
