Travel: |
I flew for the first time in '97, to Geneva, that was one of my big moments in life and I shall for ever be hooked on flying! (Never been inside an aircraft before that trip). The feeling of sitting there on the runway, the engines roaring and then just rush down the runway and up, up and away, just leaving everything behind, there are few feelings like it. I flew to London this summer on my vacation, already planning where I will go next summer, I want to see the wonders of the world mainly, the pyramids, the eiffel tower, the statue of liberty and so on. |

Film: |
Favourite TV-show is E.R., no doubt about it. Favourite film, well there are quite a few to choose from, but in no order I think: "Fench kiss", made me want to start a wineyard, "Pretty woman", well, I'm a sucker for good romantic comedies, "Much ado about nothing", introduced me to Shakespeare, never though he could be *that* funny, (damn our schoolsystem!!), Independece day, great effects, what can I say, Any Steve Martin flick, he's a great comedian! |
|
Future: |
I'm one of theese people that take the day as it comes, I don't really have any "plan" for my
future, I just follow the flow as I've always done and that seems to have worked out
quite well for me as a look back on my life so far. (a few regrets, but not to many). |

I have a Volvo S40 as companycar from SGI, I really like this car, only two things missing now, an ac and a good stereo. |
