About Me

CURRENT MISSION

learning Mandarin Chinese, do you speak chinese or do you have a business of some kind, then your more then welcome :-)

ABOUT ME

I am a happy man raised in Bruges. I live in a house 5 mins outside the centre of Bruges, 20 mins by foot, 7 by bus. I worked as an analyst/programmer for about 5 years. At the age of 27 I gave my life a twist by changing carreer. Since then I stand on markets selling sunglasses, jewelry, shawls, ... . I also have a webshop www.kettinggraveren.be on which I sell personalised pendants. A reason why I like this job so much is the freedom. If you're interested you can come with me to a market, I do markets all over Flanders.

PHILOSOPHY

Try to make the right decicions to create a happy life for myself and people around me, and try not to hurt other people while at it. This is not always easy.
