Hi there

Hi there :D

My name is Martijn, 32 years old.
I come from Holland, where I live in the southern part, together with my wife and daughter.

I may consider myself an aquafreak for over 20 years now and my main aquatic love has been (and will always be) the inhabits of Lake Tanganyika

Greetings!
No matter how life brings me down, looking at my beautiful daughter makes everything aaaaaaaaaaaaaalright! :D
