Welcome to my personal quest of leaving No Opportunity Wasted.

The list was originaly created on April 29th, 2003. Originaly, it was a list of 40 items I wanted to accomplish before I turned 40. It has changed many times since then. And it will keep changing.



If you can/want to help me achieve one of the items on my list, please send me an e-mail and let me know what you can do!
