a traveler for almost half of my life, I'm spending winters in Goa - now for the last ten years.

But still... After all these years of traveling, to finally arrive in the present moment is probably the longest journey I ever embarked on ;)

CS is totally new to me, after a few friends recommended I should try it out - so here I am, looking forward to meet people and maybe make new friends even.

I've many interests, lived in many places and done quite a few things in a variety of professions - in other words, I've seen and done a thing or two ;)
