CURRENT MISSION

going to New Zealand to see some amazing things, and have fun

ABOUT ME

first, im a really nice guy, with a big heart. but i tend to look a bit "scary" to some people. tattoos. piercings. im super shy. love the company of good people, who let me just be me and who know that i dont judge others. respect means a lot to me. im also a recovering alcoholic/addict for the last 17 years. i do smoke cigarettes though, and maybe drink too much coffee.
im a simple man. im honest, even when the truths hurts. i try to find the best in people, and hope they see whats best in me.

PHILOSOPHY

well, i feel like im lost at the moment. same deadend job for 12 years. made a decision to travel to NZ. and im going. sold most of what i own. bought a ticket, my plane leaves at the end of August.

i believe everyone, everywhere deserves respect. everyone is different, but we are all human. with the same needs. theres so much to experience in life. and if we could all open our minds a bit more, maybe we could understand each other better, and make this world a better place for all.

money and possessions mean nothing to me. what is truly important, is invisible to the eye. i try to treat others the way i want to be treated. live and let live. gain, share and help, if you can. life is too short for all the pointless drama caused by things that really dont matter at all.
