Life shrinks or expand in proportion with ones courage

About Me

Fighter girl

"Life shrinks or expand in proportion with ones courage"
Anais Nin

I love adventures and dares. I found my zen on a train in Thailand. I train hard - fight hard. I have a few principles, which I held high and live by. My goal is to each day, do something for body, mind and soul and keep my spirit high.
Also: Im a professional freelance writer, I hold a master in Sociology from Copenhagen University and I work professionally with communication strategies. A side from my own training (follow my blog) I teach classes in Kickboxing and Taekwondo. I do kettlebell and conventional weigthtraining with the warrior twist in between everything else.
I feel at home in most places, with most people - but I always like to be inspired, learn new stuff and feel the wonders of life.
