Hello, my name is Michiel, and I'm from the Netherlands. I was born to a Dutch mother and an English father. I am well-travelled and have lived in several countries, including the Netherlands, England, Spain, and China.
I’m very passionate about different cultures and languages, and I speak several languages, including Spanish, German, Dutch, and Mandarin Chinese, as well as basic French.
My hobbies include playing sports such as tennis, swimming, and going to the gym. I'm also very musical — I enjoy playing the guitar, singing, and deejaying.
