About Activity

I am a 36 year old Belgian national currently residing in Belgium and spending every winter in NY. I have also lived in London and Glasgow, UK. I have a wide professional experience ranging from catering, through plumbing and teaching English as a foreign language to diamond block insurance agent, as well as market research, customer service and selling christmas trees. I guess you could call it a portfolio CV and I am sure that these different qualities will find a common goal real soon. I would love to get into acting. I am very social and love meeting new people. I LOVE New York City and it's inhabitants like no other place. Dutch is my native tongue, I am fluent in English, have solid notions of French and am keen to learn Spanish.

Interests: nature, new york city, creative writing, cinema, bass guitar, pying guitar, ater, graphic novel art
