About Me

I am very relaxed and easy going, informal and looking for strong experiences able to make me change everyday and not take anything for granted. I spent one year in New Zealand on working holiday experience life from 2009 to 2010. I like to meet people from different cultures and see different ways of life. I think these kinds of things push me or challenge me to expand my horizons.
