About Me

To remain true to my heart is the only truth I can live by. Surviving comes naturally. Progress follows at a slower pace. Forgiving has become an easy task, love an addiction.Growing up stagnant and suffocating, followed by years of running and searching; the gypsy-blood scorching my veins.Arriving in the wrong life, enduring invisible years; but I never stopped weaving my carpet of dreams.Once those walls were broken down, I continued floating – escaping into a world of magic – self-created, drifting through dream after dream, learning to believe that everything was possible but so little desirable and discovered the relevance of our presence in other peoples lifes.Regaining faith and meaning, better understanding and desire to transform and letting go of old desires to pave the way for new ones, walking a path of self destruction to be stripped bare, down to the layers of my self I wanted to retain – the core of my being - which the years of self mutilation hid so well.Now truly growing and breathing in the arms of someone I can be one with, myself with, where only loyalty honesty and understanding matter – where love is not just a word. The future has a companion – the path we will walk will be whatever we make it.The friends that remain and the friends made along the way the biggest and only treasure. Honesty is never restricted – sometimes vulgar – but never anything but the truth.Never too proud to see the good in others – never afraid to speak my mind. Respect is the minimum expectation. Never be unkind.

My Interests

Music is my biggest passion. Unfortunately ill equipped without any musical talent, reduced to and privileged to explore others sonic landscapes. Notorious dreamer - enjoying a story - but contrary to the common believe convinced that a great story can only be told in one way. The medium is as relevant as the audience - the story the vessel.

I'd like to meet:

People passionate about life who care about others beyond their own benefit and even if no-one else is there to witness their kindness. People who respect an cherish others individuality and not try to blame them for not fitting the mould of expectation. People who care to put a smile on someone else's face and not choke enviously on others happiness.
