Rasmus - The "OK" man

Rasmus Vido was a controversial character. For anyone who didn’t know him he appeared as the most silent person in the group. But anyone who really knew him knew also that he’s an absolute party animal and the soul of Rome.

He wasn’t exactly a party starter, but he did have an fascinating way of life: he was the “ok” man. Whatever you’d suggest to him, he would do it. Even if he was still working in the evening and you asked him for a beer he would be there in less than ten minutes. That led to interesting situations where Rasmus was hanging, climbing, crossing, and whatevering the most imaginable places. He would climb a pole and drop himself in the middle of a party. He would climb a tuk-tuk roof. He would do the craziest things, while exceeding expectations at work and taking care of his physical, mental and spiritual shape.

I used to do so much with him. He kept me active. We’d go and play football. We’d go and meditate with middle aged Sri Lankan women. We’d chase cars and tuk-tuks that wouldn’t take a hitch hiker early in the morning.

Rasmus left Sri Lanka in December and all of us climbed the roof of Rome just to commemorate all the good things he brought to us. Now he’s a consultant in Danish Post and taking steps to become a real adult. Rasmus, never lose your inner child! Hosch!
