Born on the island of Terschelling, I am an adventurous person, really curious and with a positive spirit. I really like being out in the nature, climbing to good views and sailing.

Right now I live in Groningen and study medicine. I work as a trainer for aN international NGO for human rights education, And enjoy to travel as much as schedule and budget allow it.

Music, Movies, and Books

Haven't looked at the TV in ages, but when winter comes... I like to make myself comfortable and watch Samsara, The graduate and i can not stop loving Forrest Gump.

I try to read a book every week this year. So far the best was I am pilgrim, currently i'm struggling with Harper Lee's Go Set A watchman and a book i'll never forget is One flew over the cuckoo's nest.

Music depends on the mood; whether i'm running, driving, cleanin or dancing - it's completely different!
