About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Change country more frenquently than shoes (B. Brecht)

ABOUT ME

I was bored in the rut of my life, so I packed some stuff, kissed my Mum and Dad, lifted my thumb and setted off in search of adventure.
Now I've settled down for a while, I'm a part of the - Village Troglobal - - ( SEARCH AND COME IF YOU WANT, NO REQUEST NEEDED ) - - . Still have a nomad heart and moving sometimes.

Don't get me in a club or a fancy party, I'm the one sitting all night long in a corner, sipping a beer while thinking about humankind's stupidity. Don't offer me a meal, I'm the one eating more food than you can provide, finishing the dishes when nobody can eat anymore. Besides of that, I'm a nice fellow.

I want to promote solidarity and friendship across boundaries and differences.

PHILOSOPHY

Don't fear tomorrow and trust people. If someone does you dirty, well.. he's the bastard.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I don't like the taste of chocolate.

Hitchhiking with Ron from Bucharest to Istanbul in two turkish trucks, a three-days lift, with the most generous drivers so far... Story to be written and told...

Teach, Learn, Share

I just love to learn new languages and it´s always a pleasure to teach some French. I like spending time to find the best translations for an idea or a feeling in different languages, with someone from another country.
