Welcome to my site. This is what you can find here: microscopic images taking during school, writing projects, and probably some other things I haven't thought of yet!

Sometimes, immersed in his books, there would come to him the awareness of all that he did not know, of all that he had not read; and the serenity for which he labored was shattered as he realized the little time he had in life to read so much, to learn what he had to know.
-John Williams, Stoner
I was born and raised in the Netherlands, and most of the things that I write will take place here as well. I'm queer, and write about this as well. I've been writing since I was about ten or so, and it's always been a fun hobby for me. I don't actually want to work as a writer when I'm older; I want to end up working in a laboratory, preferably in a medical setting. Currently, I'm going to MBO to get a level 3 diploma (Allround Laborant [NL]) with which I can get some jobs. I'm in my first year, and hope to get work when I'm done with this. I might continue my study when I'm a little older and when I have more experience!
I enjoy reading, specifically literary fiction and historical fiction. I also have interest in non-fiction, mainly works that have to do with: nuclear accidents, WW2 (specifically about the human right aspect, mainly involving homosexuals and transgenders), the Cold War and just general history about homosexuality and human rights for queer people. Though I don't enjoy overly academic texts. If you have some recs, let me know at oliverakroon@gmail.com! In my free time I also enjoy listening to music, biking and going on walks, though I'm not seriously athletic/active. Just the regular amount.
I have cat, my favourite animal, named Felix.
