About Me

CURRENT MISSION

to find people I can share and discuss my way of thinking...

ABOUT ME

I can´t describe myself. If you first meet me you might think I´m shy and introverted, but the people that know me quite well definitely think different. I can be way too much active and talkative, but I think that´s how it should be. You can have quite a lot of fun with me, though I´m always into serious conversations and that stuff.
I like to do almost every kind of crazy stuff and I´m always into fun.

PHILOSOPHY

"When I was 5 years old, my mother always told me that happiness was they key to life. When I went to school, theys asked me that I wanted to be when I grew up. I wrote down 'happy'. They told me I didn´t understand the assignment, and I told them they didn´t understand life." (John Lennon)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I saw really poor people in the mountains of Laos in Asia, while I was travelling from Luang Prabang to Vang Vieng. And guess what, for me personally, they seemed to be more happy than any other people I´ve ever seen. And Happiness is what life is about.
