Discussion My Profile

[Pieter Boelen]

So for the past while, I've been updating both this website and my own profile.
Intention:
1. Getting both clearly differentiated.
2. Adding all sorts of relevant references.

While this site will of course always be a work in progress, I think I'm just about done with my own profile.
Have a look at it here if you're curious: Pieter Boelen

I'm open to discussing just about anything (vaguely) related to anything I list on there.
So I'll be very interested to hear what you think.

Going further, I have created a public playlist with videos that are VERY personal to me:

Video recommended to me by my father at a moment I was feeling particularly down.

How did you manage to describe my life, my thoughts and my feelings so well?

Thanks very much for making this video! Really useful to show my friends and colleagues what I did back in 2003.

Timelapse sailing in Greenland ice fields

I was on board as Third Officer Navigation with Cruises, Cruise Ship Deals, Travel Cruises | Holland America Line.

Blast from the past! Really enjoyed my bridge watches during that cruise. Probably the best time I ever had at sea. Thanks for such a great video.

Ryndam okt 2013
Video made by my father.
My only true cruise as a passenger.

Watched the brand new documentary "King of the Cruise" at the Louis Hartlooper Complex in Utrecht yesterday.
Talked to Director Sophie Dros in person afterwards.

She called cruise ships "hell".
And I fully understand her as they CAN be.
They sure have been for me at times.

But I don't agree that they always are.
I've had plenty of amazing times at sea.
And this was One DAM Cool Trip!
