About Me

I live in The Netherlands with my girlfriend. I currently study International Relations here, but I am also a journalist and very curious by nature. I am interested in you as a person and in your country.

ABOUT ME

I'm the kind of guy who is interested in the personal stories of life - the events that have made us who we are. I'm a good listener - but not shy of a debate.

I was raised in a family where the joys of travelling have always been of high priority.
I lived in South America 1,5 year in total. Mostly in Bolivia.
I lived in Cairo while studying.
I lived in Silicon Valley for half a year working for the Danish government.

I've worked professionally as a journalist for years and have a passion for writing and video production.

PHILOSOPHY

I really sympathize with people who have a passion for something and try to accomplish their dreams with the best of their ability.
