About Me

ABOUT ME

Hi,
I am PhD student of immunology at the university of Leuven. I will finish my training in Februari. I recently found a new job at the university in Boston, USA. I will move to Boston in spring.
I enjoy travelling very much. Especially travelling to remote countries off the beaten track appeals to me. So far, I already had the opportunity to visite several Asian and American countries. In some of my destinations I participated actively in local family life in order to come into close contact with traditional customs. Each of these trips was therefore very rewarding, broadened my views on world affairs in general and allowed me to have a look at life from a different angle. Apart from my studies and interest in travelling I am currently following a French language course and horse riding lessons.
