Traveler
October 2016
I have always loved to travel and meet new cultures. It invigorates the soul and explode the boundaries of the mind. I love to backpack, being outdoor and hitch-hike. For me traveling is about having time to be present and open for whatever the world has to offer.
I dream about learning to throat sing in Tuva near Mongolia, swim with sharks in Australia, take a self-defense course in Japan and free dive in Thailand.
My travel goal is simple – yet demanding: To travel in as many countries as my age. That way I know if I’m behind or too far ahead.
