About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Try to take over the world

ABOUT ME

38, workaholic and living in the centre of Rotterdam together with my border-collie Jop (yes, a dog).

I would describe my character as down to earth, friendly, direct, ambitious, outspoken, with sarcastic humor.

Interests

Sports, I'm a huge sports fan! I like to play soccer, boxing, fitness, snowboarding, tennis, running and almost every other sport or watching sports on TV or real life. This year I traveled to London for the Olympics, last year World Cup Athletics in Berlin!

Music, mostly guitar based. My favorite genres are punk, metal and hardcore, but also softer rock is appreciated. Comeback kid, Lamb of God, New found glory, AC/DC, The National, White Lies, etc Spotify is my best friend! But I also visit dance festivals, because I like the energy.

Sheep herding. I follow a sheep herding course every week. 1 word: awesome.

internet / working / zen / climate neutral living / beer / schlager music / animals
