Who loves to travel will know my interests, I love to see and experience other countries. The new cultures, people and above all nature. That is why I normally travel with my friend "Backpack" :P and others. In this blog I describe my own experiences about my private and job related travels.
After one year working at the office as a trainee engineer for Van Oord I decided to work more outside.
Now I am working for the same company as a superintendent on projects all around the globe. My first project was in Qatar, a large chemo-patrol harbour construction. The harbour is extended and my job was to coordinate and work with two dredge vessels called "Volvox Delta" and "Rotterdam" this was very interesting. And after my study (Integrated Coastal Zone Management) I have the feeling I work directly with coastal zone, everyday I am on the water or working on projects in the coastal area. Now I am asked to participate in a trainee program that lasts for one year (start end of September 2009). The trainee program shows the company and learns about the different departments. This sounds interesting as well, so I will do this!
Who am I:
Well I am Harold van Oorschot born in 1982 in Schijndel, The Netherlands. Most of my time at primary school I spend looking outside to see the nature. When I saw the importance of studying this changed
..well I spend still allot of time to see what happens outside.
After two years of working I bought a house that I rebuild with my dad. Photos are also on this page.
In September I start with a traineeship from Van Oord and for one whole year I will learn and study about the company.
