兴趣

My study is political science so politics is one of my interests. Besides that, I'm mainly interested in books and music. I have a job in a small bookstore in Amsterdam. I'm now working myself trough David Foster Wallace's book Infinite Jest. Really great. I also have a passion for music. When I have the chance I like to visit concerts and festivals, mainly in the alternative music scene. Bands I like are for example The Strokes, Radiohead and The Knife.
