More details about your skills
A versatile person with broad interests.
Business-wise I have mostly worked at several (international) companies on logistics projects, setting up and improving activities and processes. Although I have been general manager of a hotel in Thailand, a postman, and an engineer at a institution for criminals with mental issues as well. Plus I did volunteer work at several tropical countries, for example in animal rehab centres in South Africa.
So on one hand I can be organised and structured, to plan and coordinate activities on a project-basis; on the other hand I like unexpected events / surprises (and solve whatever challenge that arises).
