CURRENT MISSION

Settling in South Africa

ABOUT ME

I think I am a social, spontaneous type of person with lots of interests. I am always open for new experiences and people, trying to live Life with a capital L!
I am an optimistic person, and find it hard to deal with people with a negative attitude, but I think I learned a lot of skills during my internship at psychiatry:)Besides, I can be kind of impatient sometimes(try to work at it).
My mission is to become a good doctor and afterwards start a small cosy bakery and bake lots of cakes and pies!!!).
For now trying to settle down in South Africa, where I arrived after an amazing roadtrip all the way from Belgium through West Africa.

PHILOSOPHY

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

One thing I won't forget is when I climbed a wadi in Israel with a friend. The last part I did by myself, because she was exhausted and stopped halfway. When I reached the top, there was a cave with a waterfall. I sat there on my own with a great view over the dessert and the sea. What a feeling! On my way back, I got surrounded by all kinds of animals(goats,marmots etc). It was really amazing, although I might not sound like something amazing ( gotta be there;))
Another amazing experience: roadtrip from Belgium to South Africa ( see: www.teamcruisecontrol.net)

Teach, Learn, Share

And: If you do something, do it with passion!
