About me

About me
Love life. Friends & family. Nature. Music. Food. Exploring cities and countries all over the world. Like to go running, walking, hiking, cycling.

From The Netherlands. Raised in the south and now living in Amsterdam since 2016 for the second time.

How will our lives look like when technology and life have fully integrated with each other? That's a question and a future I am very much looking forward to. It's also something I try to merge as much as I can in my personal and professional life.

And Amsterdam is one of the greatest cities in the world!

Why Amsterdam
It's small in size, but big in almost anything else. Rich history, beautiful architecture, global influence, huge variety of people and their cultures.

There is never a boring moment in Amsterdam and there's always something new to discover or something old to learn more about.

Where else can you find me online?

Westergas - Gashouder

Techno temple Amsterdam

"Westergas - Gashouder" has always been one of my favorite techno temples in Amsterdam. The building is circular, huge, with really amazing acoustics!

Antiekbeurs 700

A visit to the past

"Antiekbeurs 700" in Amsterdam is a vintage/antique shop I found by complete coincidence. There's so much stuff you can discover here, like marbles!
