About Me

  • Gender Male
  • About me Born and raised in flat country Belgium, I guess I wasn’t meant to be a rock climber. Usually people think I am either crazy or really lucky. It’s probably a bit of both. I am barley ever in my country and always gone to target some climbing destination around the world. My home is my van. My wife is a mandolin. I am doing what love and committed everything to be able to live fully my passion for rock-climbing. Whether it’s a one move boulder problem, a big wall in alpine environment or a fine tune on my mandolin it’s the same. It’s rock and I love it all.
