Summary

I consider myself a reliable & trustworthy person. I'm never late & can count on one hand the amount of days I've had to take off of work sick.

I'm fit & healthy, love to be outdoors as much as I like driving. Fitness & exercise are big parts of my life. I'm very energetic for my age (39 when writing this) and so manual & busy jobs work well for me.


I like to do a lot of endurance training when I'm not working, such as long distance rowing, cycling & running. I rarely catch myself "bored" & when I do, I find something productive to do.
