i'm perfectly imperfect.

Dreams are the touchstones of our character.

- Henry David Thoreau

being a dreamer.

recently i've also been thinking a lot about what to do if i succesfully get my bachelor in january 2013. never know what can happen. but if yeaaaah then i've been dreaming about traveling for a period before going to athens deaflympics in the summer of 2013. this time as a tourist, and not as an athlete. i've had enouff of staying in da hotel n missing out social times with international people. ofc it was also amazing to be there as an athlete. but twice is enough. melbourne and taiwan is enough. now i want athens to be my first deaflympics as a tourist. want some time for greek islands and ouzooo.

yes, it is two years from now on till it's january 2013.

what am i dreaming of?

traveling for around 4-5 months. it depends on economy and which countries to go.

if someone of you also have the same dream, just let me know and probably we can travel together a little before separating for other countries on our dream list.

i have some countries in my mind. am exciting to make this dream come true someday.

it's good to start little by little. and i'll do it.

wish me luck. and i wish you luck with your dreams too.

ciao.

‎"1/3 van je hersenen veroorzaken een rusteloze stroom van gedachten en waarnemingen, de rest sust en lijdt de chaos in goede banen. dat verklaart ons rusteloos verlangen naar rake momenten.

waarin alles ineens helder en duidelijk is. even maar. dan stort de algemene duisternis er zich weer over.... als het gebeurt dan weet je dat je er onafgebroken naar zoekt en verlangt. de sublieme momenten." -Kees Hin.

translated to english (via google, so don't expect perfection);

"1 / 3 of your brains cause a restless flow of thoughts and perceptions, the rest soothes and suffer the chaos on track. this explains our restless desire to rake moments. where everything seemed bright and clear. a minute. then collapsed overall there is darkness .... if it happens again then you know that you are constantly looking for and desire. the sublime moments. "
