What study do you teach ? Facility & Hotel Management What subject : Operations & Purchasing management Country of origin : The Netherlands Has been teaching on BUas for 19 years .
Favourite dish : Not one in particular but I love to make Moroccan food Favourite holiday destination : Italy , because the scenery is great , the weather is nice , and the food is good . Vlieland has nicer beaches by the way . Favourite country : Vlieland Favourite movie : I could say ‘ Love Rosie ’ since I ’ ve watched it more than 5 times ( 2 times more than ‘ the Shawshank Redemption ’) but that ’ s because my daughter keeps on watching it ( 31 times and counting ) but I go for 1917 , an overwhelming movie about total madness . Favourite spot in Breda : My home and the river Mark early in the morning . Favourite alcoholic drink : Kaapse Harrie ( also blond ) Favourite things to do in Breda : Have to get used to the idea that I can discover new places to eat and meet again , so for now it ’ s still long walks with the dogs . Favourite thing to do next to working : Wood and Food . Love to ‘ create ’ stuff , use your hands instead of your head is quite relaxing . Favourite moment during your career on the BUas : A lot like having ‘ the personal onions ’ together with my colleagues but one favourite recurring moment is the graduation ceremony . We try to make it a special moment and it ’ s truly rewarding to see students that came in as ‘ youngsters ’ leave in their festive outfits as young professionals . It ’ s the icing on the cake , with a cherry on top . Favourite weird thing about you : I am absolutely allergic to people that say ‘ I am so quirky / I ’ m a weird one ’ so answering this question would mean that I am
allergic to myself .

Favourite dish : Ceann Cropaig , a Scottish dish made with ( fish livers ) kabeljauwlever ? oatmeal and onions and eaten with fish . Also , Kibbeling , the little fish pieces in batter , and of course Bitterballen . Curries are also a favourite and I try and have one whenever I get back to Scotland . UK people tend to think we invented curries , and Glaswegians especially , believe Glasgow is the home of the curry . Favourite holiday destination : Scotland Favourite country : Scotland again . We tend to be quite nostalgic about the mother country , especially when we don ’ t live in it anymore ! Favourite movie : The Sting , Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid . I also like those wonderful cartoon films such as Bug ’ s Life , Chicken Run , Shrek , and the Minions franchise Favourite spot in Breda : Grote Markt , it ’ s a lovely , vibrant spot in the summer months and what attracted me to Breda in the first place . Favourite alcoholic drink : Used to be Jamieson ’ s the Irish Whiskey , back in the wild days Favourite things to do in Breda : Going to the Chasse cinema in the winter or golfing in the summer Favourite thing to do next to working : Golfing or chatting with friends . I was very pleasantly surprised that there were so many lovely golf courses near Breda . Favourite moment during your career on the BUas : I ’ ve had many wonderful moments with some great students . I ’ m a great believer in using humour to make a point and have had some great laughs with students over the years . I ’ ve also noticed that BUas students consistently give the best presentations of all the 8 schools and 4 countries I ’ ve worked in . Favourite weird thing about you : Where do I begin ?
