About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Take it easy

ABOUT ME

I define myself as an European rider on the run. One day I decided that I had enough of my birth place and I hit the road to see what's going on after the fence. I didn't find the end of the trail yet...

Some sentences that can explain more about me.

Current occupation: Explore the Balkan playground with my new toy
My short term plan: Quit smocking and drinking
My current feeling: Don't care about that, we only have one life and it's short
My long term plan: Sail around mediterranean sea
When my feet itch: Put some salsa on
The kind on sentence you will find on my grave: Here lies one whose name was written on macadam
When I have my hands free: Take some pics http://intoxoh.deviantart.com/

PHILOSOPHY

The world is a book and those who do not travel read only a page.
Aurelius Augustinus

Music, Movies, and Books

Most of my books in my library are SF but I don't spit on a good thriller
I prefer to read a book than to watch movies
My musical taste is a spectrum wich goes from electro to loud rock via tango and batchata
