ABOUT ME

Hi. I'm Jakob. I'm a journalist working at the males magazine M! (mmm.dk)
Enjoying life, music, movies and hanging out with friends and spending time with my beautiful girlfriend, Thea. And of course I enjoy travelling.

Besides I play drums in a teenage punk rock band. We're about to release a demo in a few months .

Open-minded, relaxed, funny and... in love with wine, coffee and beer.

Cheers!

PLEASE READ THE "MY HOME" SECTION BEFORE SENDING A REQUEST (SORRY FOR THE CAPS. I'M NOT YELLING. REALLY. I'M NOT. IT'S JUST MORE... YOU KNOW... PROMINENT)

PHILOSOPHY

My approach to life is very spontaneous and I like taking chances and just to do things without thinking it through. That's both good and bad if you ask my friends. I would say it's mainly a good thing, though.
