About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Regroup and take off!!!

ABOUT ME

Short version: Laid back, liberal and restless. I consider myself to be a fun loving and easy person to be around. Love driving motorcycles, playing pinball machines and chilling in wacky bars +++

Used to work with marketing for software companies, but after 10 years with long hours it came to a point where it seemed to be a waste of life, I work to live and not the other way around. Just got back from 2 yrs on the road and now trying to "readjust" to society.
