About Me

Who am I? Great question. Thanks for asking, haha :-D

So, short overview. I was born and raised in Belgium (Europe), country of delicious chocolates and beers. I studied chemistry and engineering which led me to go to France for an internship. Here I met this amazing girl. I decided to follow her to Malaysia/Singapore and ended up living there for almost a year. Now, I'm back in Belgium and working as an engineer, in the interesting world of paper production!

I feel privileged to have friend from many different cultures and backgrounds (Brazilian, Japanese, Malaysian, Bosian, Taiwanese, ...).
This really opend up my character. I would also describe myself as friendly, organised, helpful and cheerful.
