About Me

I am Tom , 28-year-old Dutchie after having fallen in love with Slovenia's nature, now recently moved to Andalusia, Spain, due to my other love, my girlfriend Amparo.

A few things I have learned in life.
1. Do not take life too seriously
2. Try to understand others
3. Whenever you can, explore and re-connect with nature
4. Eat peanut butter
