About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Enjoy life, be good to other people and treat them like i want to be treated

ABOUT ME

Life is full of surprises and that is good thing. I never though i would become an software engineer and have a lease car, and i never thought i would ever bother about having a ladder in my stockings. But I also never thought i would be completely happy sitting in the sun on a balcony.

Music, Movies, and Books

I love all kinds of music and i really enjoy seeing live shows. Big shows, small shows, shows of bands i never even heard of. If you want to go to a concert in holland I can advise you on dates of shows and maybe i can join. I also play the guitar a little, i should practice but i never come around to that, but i do have two guitars you can use.
I love movies, like i said horror movies, but also independent movies. I love movies with black humor (especially danish ones) and movies about different lifestyles or lifes like mine, like almodovar. I also love movies that leave you thinking about them for a time like memento, donnie darko or anything from david lynch, david cronenberg, or are just strange like brazil. But i really watch anything, also old movies and big spectacular movies.
Reading i also really enjoy, at the moment i am readig american novels, like chuck palahnuik (about people with lifes that differ so much from my own) mostly know from fight club. But i also read a lot of dutch literature and i love fantastic novels.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I have been to Sinai and stayed in a Bedouin camp and although i payed to stay there i was really impressed about the hospitality of those people.

Teach, Learn, Share

I dont have any teaching skills except what i do for a job and i dont want to teach that when i dont have to work. But I like to cook and i can show you how to do that and I have taught some japanese sushi workshops with my boyfriend. I also would like to learn how to cook other dishes.
