Une aventure extraordinaire que j'ai vécue

I have been lucky enough to play music on pretty big stages for fantastic audiences. As a child, I have taken holidays to some great places and have seen amazing sceneries.

In 2011 - 2012, I spent 8 months studying traditional Chinese martial arts at Kunyu Mountain Martial Arts Academy in China.

Enseignez, apprenez, partagez

Since Dutch is my native language I can teach you that, especially if you already have a bit of knowledge about the language and would like to practice.
I am also pretty good at English, so I could teach you that as well, although I would also welcome native speakers to practice English with and who are willing to teach me more about the language.

Apart from that, I can also teach you how to play the guitar, or if you'd just like to jam, that would be great too! Martial arts are something else I can teach you, but I'd also love to learn more myself or just spar, if you like doing that. It doesn't have to be martial arts though, there are loads of sports I'd love to try out!

As for myself, there are a lot of languages I would love to learn, cultures to discover and instruments to play, as well as learn how to cook traditional dishes (or just learn to cook :p), and generally I'd very much like to meet new people and make great friends!
