Who I am
I am a 30 year old Human Technology engineer currently living in Groningen, The Netherlands. That doesn’t tell you much, does it? What if I tell you one of the things I enjoy the most is coming up with simple solutions for complex problems. Preferably original and creative solutions. And I like to make stuff look good, products, documents, presentations, doesn’t matter, the form counts.
Traveling makes for the greatest experiences in my life. Well, not really the traveling, more the place you spend time at and the people you meet. Traveling in and of itself isn’t the greatest thing in the world. New Zealand must be my favorite country in the world, the US the most fascinating, Japan the most bizarre, Australia the most authentic, Thailand the most relaxed and Holland the most ‘home’.
♥ Technology, photography, video making, travel, podcasts & audiobooks, web 2.0 and passionate people
