Hello everyone!

My name is Frans. I´m a 24-year-old Dutch/German guy living in the cozy Roermond.
Some qualities about me:
- I can cook a stellar pancake and Indonesian cuisine. Big fan of spices and expanding my cooking-skills.
- Big language geek: it can change my mood 360 when I hear or learn another language.
- Love festivals, volunteering, dance, walking/hiking/cycling, drag, making outfits, cleaning, travelling and good-ol cd´s or vinyls.
- Social butterfly: it´s a pleasure to get to know new people and insights.

Lived in many places, and hope to expand this list! The world is ours, so why not enjoy all of her fruits of beauty?

教，学，和分享

TEACH:
Optimism -
It´s free (love that), there´s always a good thing to get you going through difficult situations.
Activity -
I´m a very dynamic person, that loves to bring people to new places; even in my city, there are cute sights to see! (Roermond is a city of history going back to Roman times!)

LEARN:
Nuance -
I have learned that different viewpoints and open discussion are really rewarding. It creates understanding of one another!
Relaxation -
Since I am very active, I have learned to relax by myself thanks to others. Whenever I go on a trip, I like to hear people´s favorite spots and activities.

Share:
Stories - moments of time passed, ongoing, and upcoming. I am politically active and like to get clued in about the news (not too much hehehe). Tell me your proudest moments!
