CURRENT MISSION

Work hard, play hard!

ABOUT ME

I hope to meet nearby travelers for a coffee or beer!

I studied Journalism and International relations in Brussels. Really love that melting pot city! After my studies I lived in England for a while where I worked as a consultant, which didn't have anything to do with my passions, except for the fact that I could improve my language skills. So I quit. After this little adventure, I decided to move to the Netherlands where I became a video journalist. Since then, I have worked and lived in west Africa and the Middle East.

PHILOSOPHY

Go where the wind blows you, if there is no wind...take the train!
Go with the flow. Not with the flock.
