About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To attribute to this world

ABOUT ME

I'm a creative guy, a bit dreamy sometimes, that likes to do photography, filming and writing. I'm currently studying Urban Planning at the University of Amsterdam. I have a very active student life, I like philosophy and arts but also to just have a good time. Celebrate life, because, you only live once (I don't like the 'yolo' thing but there's truth to it)

PHILOSOPHY

Live to the fullest, as if you live in a story. Only you are responsible for your own life. Don't complain, don't come with excuses. Be true to yourself.
