Iโm a Belgian educator and musician who came to Korea out of curiosity and found I felt more at home here than in places where I blend in. Iโd always dreamed of running my own school; now I teach English and music around what each student wants to learn, and Iโm testing an app that helps people think in English. I started piano at three, hated it, and somehow made music my professionโon weekends I conduct choirs and orchestras. Figuring out who I was took time, so personal growth became a habit: when something gets under my skin, I ask what it reveals about me and what I can learn from it.
