My name is Joep van Oorschot. I'm a master student mechanical engineering from the netherlands. From end of April untill end of July I will be doing my internship in Neuchatel at EPFL-LAMD. I'm still looking for a place to stay my first week.
As a person I'm quite neath and calm. I like to go hiking, biking, sailing or windsurfing and I'm planning to become a temporary member of the local sailing club during my stay.

PHILOSOPHY

I want to do things in my life, so when I get a officejob, I can stil look back to my past and be satisfied.
