About

hello, I am from Brussels, working in the audio-visual sector for more than 25 years, and fell very seriously in love with Indonesia and more particularly with Bali and its surroundings, from my first visit in 2007 (and 2009) Since 2016 I have returned there 1 or 2 times a year. I'm still not satisfied!,.. (and to think that so far I've only scratched the surface.. Indonesia being immense! I hope one day to be able to settle down there. But there is no urgency, especially since for these years I have been studying all the aspects of an expatriation in Bali, so I am well aware that it is far from simple, so I am not making a film... waiting until retirement is still the "simplest" idea....but that's a long time! ;) in short, in the meantime I will settle for longer visits (60-day tourist visa) and less spaced out while teleworking remotely, because I am lucky that the company I work for in Belgium allows me to do so, no matter where..and teleworking being visibly authorized in Indonesia, it's perfect! I am obviously open to any meetings with Indonesian expatriates living in Brussels. I speak French, English and for the moment, a little bit of Bahasa Indonesia...sedikit half sedikit..
Interests: Simple things

Occupation

I am Employed.
