CURRENT MISSION

carpe diem quam minimum credula postero

ABOUT ME

Generally Ι am quiet dude but I have my extrovert cressentos now and then. I tent to be very passionate about the things I love. I usually dream and long for things that exceed my current capabilities. I love to talk and listen. People sometimes call me a “father figure” I love mountains and all types of rocks. Nothing beats sleeping under the stars! I tend to look at the marvel of existence to remind myself to be humble and not to take people or myself too seriously. I hope that I will never get tired of marvelling life, the universe and everything!

PHILOSOPHY

Scale back your long hopes to a short period.
Even as we speak, envious time is running away from us. Seize the day, there is nothing else beyond that
