About Me

I'm a very active person. I love Brasilian Jiu Jitsu, running and biking. Nature feels like home to me. Also, I'm a chef, so one of the things that I certainly love is cooking and eating good meals. I enjoy reading books and I feel drawn to travelling and having new adventures. I'm looking forwards to get to know new places, people and their cultures. I'd love both to share all my life experience and skills to nourish others, and to learn from others to acquire a better view of the world.

My philosophy in life is based on a mix of the bushido(the way of the warrior) and the Nine Noble Virtues of the norse religion known as odinism.

9 noble virtues Bushido
Courage Courage
Truth Sincerity
Honour Honour
Fidelity Righteousness
Discipline Self-Control
Hospitality Loyalty
Self Reliance Benevolence
Industriousness Respect
Perseverance

True freedom it is on creativity and love, be yourself ... Unafraid undoubtedly simply surrender to life and overcome the obstacles of the way with grace and determination.

There is no gravity when your wings are your imagination.
