Personal Description

I am a 30 year old boy who dares to dream and follow them as far as the wind dictates, whether it be by foot, bike, climbing mountains, or riding an offroad motorbike to remote destinations. Adventure is always just around the corner...


Interests

Spirit. Arts. People and Culture. Cycling. Motorbikes and Overlanding. Climbers of Mountains. Philosophy . Love and its Devotion.

Philosophy

I have decided that the point of this lifetime is to pursue Purpose to its conclusion in the most direct manner possible. Exactly what that is and how to go about it is still under exploration.

Music, Movies, Books

Music: Violin solos; Sitar; Opera Songs; digeridoo; african-arabic-latin drumming; electronica such as house, psy-trance, goa, some drum&bass; revolutionary rap and hip hop; indy-rock and some classics like Led Zep; old skool jazz and blues; indiginous waves & tunes; the best is funky reggae and anything I can dance to!

Movies: Kung Fu classics and contemporaries: Original Drunken Master and Bruce Lee stuff...Big Trouble in Little China, Hero is a masterpiece, Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon, Fearless is a new favorite; V for Vendetta; The Matrix; The Matrix Revolutions I think was the most important; K-Pax; Korean Film: Spring Summer Fall Winter and Spring; Korean Film: Shower; Ghandi...any movie with a deep message about human struggle and/or its progression.
I am a sucker for the silly comedies of Jim Carry, Michael Meyers, and Adam Sandler. I also enjoy musicals like Marry Poppins and The Producers.

Types of People I enjoy

Those that dare to dream...and dare to love

Teach, Learn, Share

I want to learn to share...teaching is not up to me.

I met with Dave when he came to Warsaw this spring. After a really interesting exchange of e-mails we managed to meet and have a little walk around Warsaw. Had dinner together, went to store together, chatted and talked. Dave seems to have many tings to share and to tell, wish I could have more time to listen to all the stories! Well, lets hope I will get a chance to visit Grand Canion some day and spend some more time with you :)

Hope you enjoyed Rome! CYA!

We met in a restaurant in Paris, as David was having trouble ordering salmon...
he's a very easygoing and interesting person with a big smile on his face!
I wish we had more time to spend with him since he's got many adventures and stories to tell, plus, he's a great listener
hopefully we'll see eachother soon when we'll hike in the Grand Canyon!
