About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To knit!

ABOUT ME

I have been living in Amsterdam for three years now where I got my bachelors degree in neurobiology. Next year I am going for my masters in Cognitive Neuroscience.

I am afraid of closed shower curtains but I love making pictures of doorknobs. I also recently started knitting a scarf with the goal of creating the ugliest object ever to be conceived by mankind. It's already going great!

PHILOSOPHY

"I think that the chances of finding out what's actually going on are so absurdly remote that the only thing to do is to say, "Hang the sense of it," and keep yourself busy. I'd much rather be happy than right any day."

- Slartibartfast

Interests

I play guitar, I am in a band where I am the lead singer and rithm guitarist. It´s nothing fancy but we have a lot of fun in writing our own music :) Currently I´m also writing songs on my own on my acoustic guitar.

On the side I also make graphic designs like logo's and posters for parties. I am currently working on some designs for t-shirts.

I love to party or just drink a beer with friends. You can wake me up any time for a good electro party with music like Boys Noize, Justice and Soulwax.

Music, Movies, and Books

I love music. I listen to Radiohead, Sigur Ros, Kings of Convenience and lost of other bands, DJ's and singer-songwriters.

Amongst the authors I love are Haruki Murakami, Jonathan Safran Foer and Pascal Mercier.

If I had to name the three best movies I know they would be Donnie Darko, The Shawshank Redemption and The Big Lebowski.
