About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To have no mission.

ABOUT ME

Oooookay. I'm a sports therapist, alternative practitioner, rickshaw driver, hostel worker, tour guide, yoga teacher, nomad and big brother. I love camp fires, straight people, shining eyes and those tiny sacred moments full of light, soul and connectedness.

I like to quantum-surf, collect worlds, play the tin drum, conjure nonsense out of nothing and to become a free soul. Peace and love, wave and smile ;)

PHILOSOPHY

You happy? Me happy. No problem!
