About Me

Hi there! I am a currently living in Belgium. I adopted a sort of nomadic lifestyle and move around a lot for job opportunities.. Currently I live in Belgium; the country of fries, chocolate and beers :-)

I enjoy travelling, meeting new people and 'crazy' adventures. But I can also be quite serious about my job.. I love working on and analysing cities and I am fascinated by their social and spatial organisation.

My current mission is to enjoy life to the fullest. Whoh that does not sound cheesy at all :-)....

PHILOSOPHY

live whithout dead time..(Adbusters)
Try not to become a man of success, but rather try to become a man of value (Einstein)
We think we understand the rules when we become adults but what we really experience is a narrowing of the imagination (David lynch)
