About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Explore the world, the culture, the people and enjoy my life.

ABOUT ME

I have finished my around the world trip and enjoyed staying with my hosts in Japan. My world trip was amazing and now I live in Amsterdam. A city where I always wanted to live.

I am a mathematics teacher at a secondary school in Amsterdam. I enjoy life in this city a lot. I try to be social and learn a lot of new people. I like to sport and I like a challange.

I very much enjoy a good conversation with nice people. I enjoy live and hope to travel again or even work abroad in the future.

The possibilites are endless.

PHILOSOPHY

People are to polite.
Because of there politeness they don't even ask important questions. It creates uncomfortable moments for both.
So, asking is not inpolite, I say, ask anything you want (with respect), and in return people can reply with a respectfull yes or no. No hard feelings. You get to know each other faster and better this way.
