The sport has seen him travel through Europe with different athletes visiting even more boxes and meeting fascinating people from the community.

A particular love of mine is skiing (freestyle / freeride) and if I could spend my days living in a shack on the side of a snow covered mountain I would. I am part of the team that created BOXROXmedia, so if you have any questions, ideas or feedback regarding our services, let me know!
