* CURRENT MISSION:
Creating and living the dream!
Finding out where to live, even when I know mother earth is my home.

* ABOUT ME:
Welcome to my profile.

I'm a goldsmith designer of jewelry, chess sets and furniture of all kinds of materials.
I develop myself into an artist with the years and having fun in life, the most important thing to do!

I was born in Bucaramanga Colombia. Moved on to Guadalajara Mexico, where my loving father had found a new job at Unesco. America became our vacation country together with Austria Tirol where they built their 2nd house when living in Colombia. After leaving Mexico we settled for a few years in Tirol. Travelling around Europe on vacation and eventually moved on to The Netherlands.

Traveling has and still is my passion in life. Love visiting new countries and getting to know the Locals, making new friends.

Couchsurfing is a great way to travel the world and meet up with the locals, I must say.
I met a lot of cool and crazy world citizens this way. Love inviting people to visit Nijmegen, the oldest city of The Netherlands 2000 years history.

I organized lot's of events for the couchsurfing community in Nijmegen and most known as the BBQ organizer. Belong to the admin of the Cs. Facebook Nijmegen.

Everybody is welcome to visit or travel with me and have a great time on this majestic planet we live on.
You are always welcome to contact me.

Cheers, MotleyDavid.
