Enjoying the good things of life

ABOUT ME

Im Tjerk, originally from the Netherlands. I recently moved to Vienna to pursue my PhD degree.

I like to travel, unfortunately, there seems never enough time! I also like to meet new people and have fun. Im always up for a beer & good food!

I love to meet people that are talkative, openminded and honest. Im a good listener and really enjoy hearing weird/crazy stories from all over the world :D

PHILOSOPHY

From reading good books to meeting new people. To see beautiful places and to experience new sensations.

音乐、电影和书籍

Music: actually I like a lot, it mostly depends on my mood. Good bands/people: Anouk, Blof, Go back to the zoo, IOS, Johnny Cash, Michael Jackson, Daft punk, Fatboy slim. Recently also some classical music: Vivaldi is great.

Movies/Tv-series:
As I like British humor, you cannot do without Fawlty Towers, Blackadder, The office. But also Friends and House spring to mind.

Inception is the best film I saw recently. I really like a wide variety of movies, from Shrek and other animated movies to comedies and action/SF movies. Too much to mention!

Books: I recently finished some books from Peter Hamilton. A must-read for anyone interested in SF/Space Opera. Another classic series is The Wheel of Time by Robert Jordan. The first 5/6 books were pure brilliance, but then it got quite bad. However, the last book was awesome! The Hitchhikers guide to the galaxy is another fine book. Terry Pratchet is a writer I enjoy alot. Robin Hobb is another great fantasy writer. Somehow Im not really into the literature, although I enjoy it sometimes. The Shadow of the Wind was a great book! And there were some other books that I cannot remember now!

我做过的一件不可思议的事情

My 6 month study trip to Sweden was one never to forget. From big parties and meeting nice people, to Sweden itself (beautiful country) where I went X-country skiing, rode a dog sledge and saw the northern light from the back of a snowscooter. Amazing!!
