PHILOSOPHY

Epicurism. Passionate, in love with life. The main lesson life teaches you: TEMPUS FUGIT so make it happen before tomorrow becomes yesterday, CARPE DIEM ! I believe that a life without risk is a life not worth living and that crashing can sometimes be quite elevating. I am also keen to try everything (well, with a few exceptions) at least once.

Interests

Leading an open and learned life, meeting people engaged in such pursuit.

• socializing
