About

Africa

Here you’ll find the unorganised scribbles and occasional pictures of an astronomer (on paper), photographer (amateur), traveler (lucky), geek (/dev/null), sports junkie (really!), etc.

I live in the Netherlands but I’m moving to South Africa soon. Favourite destination: where nature rules. If I get a chance to travel into space or to Antarctica, I’ll go. I’m not a city girl.

I’m always happy and generally too busy to take the time to blog anything interesting, although wish I had more time/patience to share the amazing adventures I’m lucky to live.

I believe in people, thinking, openness, responsibility, common sense, sharing, making things so public that they can’t be appropriated anymore, crossing lines that are there for no good reason, breaking ivory towers, all with a smile. always.

I love science, photography, ingenuity and therefore computers and technology.

I had no idea I could so much say about myself.
