About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Raising the bar

ABOUT ME

Working in and living just a few kilometers outside the center of Amsterdam. I like to read, to watch films and to play the piano. I stay in shape by running and cycling. I'm quite a competitive person and I have a partiality for old-fashioned or non-existing games. Even though I am terrible at football, I very much like to watch the games.

PHILOSOPHY

"Did you know that if you change the four letters of 'Dora', you get the word 'cunt'. Coïncidence? I don't think so."

Teach, Learn, Share

If you have a great vegetarian recipe, I'd love to learn it. I'm not a vegetarian, but I do think we can reduce our meat consumption. It's a real pity meat is so tasty.
