I'm doing 26 things
At this moment I am waiting for the driver to arrive.

Then I will collect the flowers and after that…. my bride!
I am very excited and very happy.
Thanks to everybody for the support.

How I did it
It made me
intensely happy 
How I did it: Exactly 2,5 years after I proposed to my love we had our wedding. Of course we did a lot of preparation for the big day, but one cannot prepare for finding love.I feel blessed to be with her. Read how I did it…
It made me
smell better
How I did it: For a long time, I used to smoke 10 to 20 a day. Then I noticed I dropped back to 3 to 5 a day. One moment, after finishing a cigarette, I decided that was the last one. As simple as that. Read how I did it…
It made me
satisfied
How I did it: I started training kendo several years ago. After six months I realised that iaido would complete my kendo. Soon I realised that I liked iaido very much for itself. After a wihile I got my iaito, then -after quite a bit of training- I became shodan in iaido. That was 1,5 years ago now. Today I took the next step. Read how I did it…
