Hey, there! I'm Julian, an enthusiastic and positive guy who loves to get creative!

In this life, I have done, tried (and maybe forgotten) things like:

.My first flight ever was on a sailplane
.Directed a music video about a guy mashing up breakdance with ballet
.Took care of disabled kids for a year
.And changed a record breaking amount of diapers :-D
.Slid down a self-made ropeway
.Went on an animal rescue mission
.Became a photo artist
.Wrote songs
.Was part of a band (guitar & keyboard)
.Sitted and made friends with a lot sweet doggies
.(Although I would say I'm more of a cat person... :-))
.Left off on a travel without knowing my destination
.Got interviewed and found out that I aired on a major Indonesian TV channel
.Fried like 50,000 donuts and learnt how to make coffee (still a barista noob though) during my working holiday

One of the most important things for me:
.creativity
.dreams
.experiences (inner and outer world)
.meditation
.vegetables and hazelnuts

In other words:
"I want to know if you will risk looking like a fool – for love – for your dreams – for the adventure of being alive." (Oriah Mountain Dreamer)
