CURRENT MISSION

To enjoy and to learn.

ABOUT ME

I'm Hessel from The Netherlands and have been living abroad for almost 8 years. I’ve lived in Vietnam for almost 4 years and am currently living in New Zealand for 4 years. Both times for work and because I like to explore this beautiful world.

I'm a person easy to get along with. I treat people with respect as I also want to be treated that way. I'm quite relaxed and I think I would be best described as caring, friendly, calm (but not quiet).

PHILOSOPHY

I try not to think too much but I always end up thinking too much.
