My Background

Childhood

I grew up in Bangkok, Thailand and lived there for 12 years. I consider myself especially lucky for being able to go to an International School as a child. My experience there was so great I visit almost each year!

Here's me back in Thailand for a friend's wedding (Indian Wedding)

Teenage & college years

Not much to say about these years. I moved back to Belgium and lived in Aalst.. I got a Masters degree in Business Sciences.

One thing about people from Aalst. They have Carnival and the men dress up as 'Voil Jeannetten' and party for 3 days straight. You can probably guess what 'Voil Jeannet' means by seeing the accompanying foto.

The last couple of years

  • I lived in Thailand in 2011 - 2012.
  • I moved back to Belgium and started working as a consultant.
  • I finally got more excited about learning new things.
  • I started a blog called Learn To Be More because I wish I had been more inspired as a teenager. It's for those who know they can be more but haven't yet been nudged or inspired to do so.
  • Becoming addicted to Blockchain technology and researching new things!

Wish you all the best!
