It’s a never-ending debate. All we have is time, yet all we spend is money. Without any doubt we give away all our time to work and everything that has to be done. There’s no second thought on how we may be spending our time. What if we decided to keep a little time to…
When riding my bike off-road she is definitely the most capable of the both of us. Without looking back, she ploughs through the mud, takes on the puddles and ends up in a ditch to be picked up again. Indicators broken, but she doesn’t care. I can honestly tell you that I would be in…

This morning I thought I saw a monkey sit on the lamppost. Sitting on the toilet I miss the gecko’s crawling on the walls, but I am damn happy there is no risk of finding cobras in my laundry basket or scorpions crossing through my bedroom! When these thoughts pop up in my head I…
