About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To grow up

ABOUT ME

honest, inspired, happy, friendly, to-the-point, enthousiastic, smiling, highly impulsive, a bit rebelious

PHILOSOPHY

I have a possitive and optimistic lifestyle. I value personal relationships and new experiences a lot more than I value money. I believe this very moment could be the happiest moment of my life if I'd let it be and I want to get there together.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

The short moment I felt enlightend.
Changing my lifestyle from a selfemployed freelancer in western society to an overland traveler of the world and back

Teach, Learn, Share

I know lots of stuff about lots of things. For example I can program a website, have a filosophic conversation, share my enthousiasm, build a wind-turbine, install a solarpanel, I could teach someone how to DJ, or to speak dutch, or where to look in the nightsky to find the polestar and how to collect clean drinking water from seawater.

I would like to know more about farming and motorengines. Also I want to learn to fly a helicopter in the next few years, or preferably a UFO. Building a sailing ship.
