Fawaka Hive Community! I just woke up and started typing straight away (don't mind my messy writing).
I think this post will be a bit longer as I have 20 facts about myself to cover. Hope you guys don't get bored LOL!
Fact #1
I was born and raised in Suriname, Paramaribo (South America) and I am 21 years of age. I lived there untill I was 18 and moved to the Netherlands to study further (more on that later).
Fact #2
I was the number one tennis player in Suriname and I had the honor to represent my country in different tournaments. I would like to rep Suriname in the Netherlands as well. But Corona decided to burst my bubble (No worries, ill get back up as soon as it's possible again!)
Fact #3
I love traveling with my loved ones! I have been to a lot of places on the world already and I would like to explore Europe and Asia more right now since I am currently studying in the Netherlands. P.s. yes those are my parents and my "little" brother (he beat me in height already).
Fact #4
I am currently studying Business in the Netherlands. The first time I came to the Netherlands I went to Groningen to study Pharmacy (This was not my fav study) I studied this because I wanted to become a surgeon but I did not manage to be able to get through the selection. After this I choose to go and study Business on the university of Erasmus (which was a bummer as well, because a lot of the knowledge was based on so much theory). Business is all about experience and practical stuff IMO. After a while I then decided to go and study at the Hogeschool of Rotterdam to continue my study in business (Where I have managed to claim my P now).
Fact #5
I love food ! I love cooking for friends and family and I love eating at different places. I think this is because of my Surinamese soul hahah. If you would ask me what my favorite food is? I really don't know. Just put food in front of my face and I will taste it. Salty > Sweet.
fact 6
I love setting up businesses. I have had many businesses such as: Nigoshi, Reuzebaby, Kibri International, Kibri Investment, a shoe business, a shirt business, an import export business and a social media marketing business. I just like being busy (As you can see). I started selling shoes in Groningen when it was a real hype (Yes I was one of the early adopters) before gary vee even spoke about shoes lol. Oh how I miss those days....
Fact 7
The gym is the only place where my mind can rest (So now that Corona has closed all gyms I am getting a bit more crazy everyday hahaha)
No all jokes aside. The gym helps me to be able to focus on my targets. It gives my mind the energy that it needs in order to perform at it's best.
Fact 8
I like reading! Yeah you read that right. I like reading books that help me adjust my mindset in order to reach my goals. We all need someone to learn from and I get all my knowledge out of books that can be downloaden for free from pdfdrive.
Fact #9
I used to be a social media influencer (still am a bit, just not focused on fully using it). My stage name used to be Reuzebaby (Big baby) which a few of my friends gave me as a name because I had a babyface. All my videos can be found on Reuzebaby (Facebook page) or on my YouTube channel: Niguel Mannes. These where mostly comedy sketches of things that happen in Suriname. I liked having a positive impact on younger people who are now chasing their dreams!
Fact #10
I have a girlfriend which I am with for almost 5 years now. I am not planning on leaving her anytime soon haha (NEVER). Anyway here she is: Mi Amor.
*Fact #11
I have a dog in Suriname which
I is basically a child to me I have had her for over 8 years now (she is really old for a small dog). She loves the nature and loves swimming when we go to places outside of the city. Meet Jessica:
*Fact #12
I love the cold. That's pretty weird right.. someone from Suriname who lives in 25-35 degrees heat loves the cold. HAHAH jup my parents always call me "Airco-jongen" Which means air conditioned boy. LOL. I do need to add that I don't like the snow for too long. Having it for one day is "fun" enough for me.
Fact #13
I like swimming. When I was a kid I used to compete for Suriname as well with swimming. I loved it, but I just loved tennis a bit more. And like any professional sport that you do, you will have to choose at some point. Nonetheless I just love swimming in general and I love it even more when we go outside of the city like the picture below:
Fact #14
I enjoy graphic designing. I can spend hours behind my pc to create something that has to do with photography or graphic designing. Anything that has to do with a pc and a camera... count me in!
Fact 15
I am in the crypto space since 2016. I have been in the crypto space for a while now. So I have pretty much "seen it all" right now and I don't mind a 15-40% dip in any type of coin. IMO that's just a golden opportunity to be able to buy some more!
Fact #16
I like playing board games. My favorite board game is monopoly because it has so much real life stuff in it that people don't even notice yet. If you are down to play a match of monopoly CALL ME!
Fact #17
I don't like to party in the Club I only like to go to festivals to "party" with friends. I find going to the club a waste of time and time is just a valuable thing to me. Call me boring? So be it... You won't see me in the club every 2-3 days. Give me a book to read and I'll finish it within those days!
Fact #18
I was chubby as a kid. One day I said: NO MORE. And I started working my ass off in order to become shredded (Need to start again, because Corona got the best of me). I started with doing pushups everyday for over 3 months and then I started doing other workouts which eventually got me in the gym.
Fact #19
I don't have a lot of friends. And yes I do have friends, I am just talking about people who are real friends to me. To keep it simple: Circle small. This is my brother and my best friend.
Fact #20
Dangg this was long to type out ! At least I finished the challenge (I guess haha).
Keep grinding and keep moving everyone! SOSO LOBI (Lots of Love).
