Favourite quote (s):

mind your actions - they will become your character

mind your character - it will become your destiny"

"we have to become the change we want to see in this world"

(ghandi)

"kiss me tom" (supergirl) wink

world traveller in summer years, artist, munky, rebel, embodying life's extremes of water - fire - air - earth - space, a spiritual being having a (very) human experience, juggling probs and projects, solving life's equation - for just those 2 cubic-metres of sensual experience, striving for the same destiny as you - merely on a different road... hug

Got initiated to firedancing in Byron '96, firestaff... didn't touch Poi for 3 years after hitting my balls with heavy firepoi, dared another try in 1999 and proceeded, got my kix in Koh Pha'Ngan 2002, then started a professional career shows in Germany, Brazil, India, held workshops worldwide...

...not the greatest spinner at all, ceased training two years, but am back into it...

sometimes pretty clumsy... rolleyes

English is only my second lingo! Please take this into account... as a German I would often say "can you" instead of "could you please"... not engaging much in popularity contests and definitely not too much into Social Games and Chat. Idle talk is really something I consider not worth the precious air.

But definitely Nutella................................ on creamcheese toast or Belgium Waffles!!!
