Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
I want to find my destiny, i want to see new places, meet new great people, i want something i will tell my children one day.
ABOUT ME
Hi there!
What is there to tell about me ?
Well, about my personal informations,
I am living in Switzerland
My mother is dutch which makes me half dutch.
I am 19 years old
I just finished school and will start with my studies in Autumn of 2015 - so there´s still time inbetween that i want to use in a good way.
I love sports!
It´s about the fun, the fitness and the great people you can share it with.
There are great friends i´ve met because of sports!
To stay fit the right nutrition is essential
- don´t get me wrong. sometimes there´s nothing better than a tasty burger or some pizza. But the world offers an amazing variety of deliscous food. I am sure you can find in every country at least 10 deliscous meals you would never have thougt that they even exist?!
Cooking is a great way to chat and just to enjoy company, it doesn´t have to be a restaurant to feel relaxed.
I love music! It´s a different way to express feelings. It´s a king of communication. I played the piano for about 3 years.
I am a non smoker and i also don´t really like to drink alcohol, even though drinking a beer when beeing with company is always fine!
It was about the time when i turned 18 when i started to realize that i hadn´t found my destiny yet. I need to learn more about the Richard inside me!
How can i do this ? - i can´t say, but since travelling
and meeting new people has always been a passion of me
I think it´s the right first step to explore the world a tiny bit more!
Society makes me feel sick very often. There are things going on you woul never ever expect in such an ´´modern
society´´ as ours. And worst of all is how most of us are able to ignore it. I mean what I say because I was ignoring those things for almost all my life.
So I hope to meet new people, with - as we call it in switzerland ´´ a wider horizon ´´.
I am confident that many people that use CS feel the same spirit!
You don´t need to meet new people with a lot of money, they will never make you as happy as a friend who makes you to experience things that change your mind and make you maybe even a little bit wiser.
I´ve been to some places on earth,
- Germany, France, Italy,the netherlands, Spain, the UK, Scotland, Croatia, Egypt, Maledives, Indonesia,
I have been to India for 5 weeks, where i did voluntary work (Organisation´s name is ´´Idex´´). I taught english and basic maths to young children and i worked in a school for people with a handycap.
I think India has been one of the most important experiences of my life.
Apart from the beautiful country and it´s inhabitants i made great experiences with meeting new friends to work with (from all over the world! there were from columbia, germany, france, australia and more !!)
I also touched the world of photography.
I am not a professional photographer at all but nevertheless i love to take pictures!
As i mentioned, my view of life changed only about 1.5 years ago. But i think i´m on the right track now.
Now is the time to have adventures, explore the world and make new connections !
PHILOSOPHY
The world has become a dark place and it´s up to people like us to make it a better place to live in :)
Be open for everything new! You may find the occupation of your dreams
