I went for a group job interview once and was asked how my friends would describe me in three words.  The only one of the three I can remember was honest. My explanation was “growing up I was always told not to lie, my Mum would say that lying is bad”.  How remarkable…

This is an amalgamation of things all stitched together with tacking stitches.  There’s no coordination, curation or forethought, just things I like and think in disarray.

Living in Maastricht (Netherlands) since August 2012
