Mon parcours
I moved to Vietnam from The Netherlands in 2014, I married my wonderful Vietnamese Girlfriend in 2015 we now have a beautiful Daughter and living happily in Saigon
I love the Vibrancy of Saigon, The food, The people and lazy weekends in the Countryside with my wife's family
Perhaps the Best city in Europe to live if you are single and especially if you are living on one of the best streets in the Center of Amsterdam (Nieuwezijds Voorburgwal) The 10 years I spent living in that great city was one of the best periods of my life
The vibrent city beat, the cozy winter nights in candle lit old Amstedam cafe's and bars, the wonderful sunny days sitting on the terrace of a canal resturant/Bar..walking through the old streets of Amsterdam, Queens Day (Later became Kings Day) skating (or trying to skate) on the frozen canals and most of all having great Dutch friends..who are still my friends to this day!
Englishmen Stag party weekends who felt that it was okay to urinate and throw-up in peoples doorways
After almost 2 years preforming a Cabaret show on the island of Lanzarote, I moved to Dubai and returned to my normal profession working in the Offshore Commercial Diving Industry, I was working for SMIT Terminals on various projects within the Middle East, mainly Qatar, Bahrain, Yemen and UAE
Dubai was fun and rewarding a sort of 'work hard, play hard' existence. The expat life there as a single guy pretty much centered around the weekends of drinking and villa pool parties / BBQ's, with wonderful colleagues, friends and the lovely girls working with Emirates airlines
