About Me

CURRENT MISSION

contributing to the multicultural encouter

ABOUT ME

I'm father of 3 young adults, and spent most of my professional life in development cooperation, both in other countries and from my home country. I love nature, I like world music, dancing, biking, walking, volleyball, kanoe, ... and a lot more. I'm a musician (trumpet, harp) , playing in a few informal bands and also solo (in nature, street)

PHILOSOPHY

Let's stop hurrying like crazy, en take time for the really important things in life. If you can live with less, you create space for yourself and for your priorities.
