Who am I?

My photo
Amis Boersma
Amsterdam, Netherlands
I'm a traveler, trying-to-be-do-good-er and cultural-gap crosser. I am enthusiastic and sensitive, talk and think a lot and am mostly optimistic. I like: the sound of laughter, caffe lattes, incense and little shrines, karaoke on the bus and people that live with passion. I don't like: complaints about the weather, cold toes, funny smells and boredom.
