About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Explore my limits and push them further. Meeting new people, making friends.

ABOUT ME

It looks like I live my life backwards.
Quit at school at age 15, worked for about 20 years, and I have the feeling my life started when I stopped working in 2001.

Now I start to enjoy life, and CS is for me a way to meet people, make friends.
Despite my autism, I want to explore my limits.
Travelling and meeting new people is scary, but also interesting and instructive. But meeting CS-people is great, there open-minded, accept that I'm a little different. It feels very safe for me.

When I tell someone I have Asperger, they are mostly very surprised. Yeah, when it's crowded with people, I'm more silent then most people, but in small company, I'm almost just like everybody else.

I'm a single father with a 11 year old son who's living with me.

PHILOSOPHY

Imagine there's no Heaven
It's easy if you try
No hell below us
Above us only sky
Imagine all the people
Living for today

Imagine there's no countries
It isn't hard to do
Nothing to kill or die for
And no religion too
Imagine all the people
Living life in peace

You may say that I'm a dreamer
But I'm not the only one
I hope someday you'll join us
And the world will be as one

Imagine no possessions
I wonder if you can
No need for greed or hunger
A brotherhood of man
Imagine all the people
Sharing all the world

You may say that I'm a dreamer
But I'm not the only one
I hope someday you'll join us
And the world will live as one

(John Lennon)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

This has nothing to do with travelling or couchsurfing, but the most amazing moment of my life was the birth of my son, now 11 years ago.

Teach, Learn, Share

I'm not bad at cooking & photography.
I can tell you what it's like to live with autism and how my life is changed in a positive way since I got my own diagnose.

Like to learn more about enjoying life, loving people, the wonders of this world...
