ABOUT ME

I have a healthy fascination for food. I like to build stuff that is functional and has a purpose, more than one is even better ( I think the correct term is pragmatic) although it's necessary to express myself artistically once in a while too.

Both surfing and hosting have been great experiences until this day, it magically brings out the best in a person :)
