About Myself:
Professionally, I am a leader with the initiative to organize people and arrange events. Since high school and university I arranged and organized trips, learning groups, and others.

I like to learn new languages, even if they are not are necessary for my work, like Japanese (I took lessons for more than 6 months at university), Korean (self-taught) and Dutch (self-taught).
