Woman, 33 years old. From childhood, I was deeply interested in everything that affects the human body, so choosing my field of study was not difficult: BSc in Biomedical Sciences. During this , I also developed a strong drive to be able to change things on a larger scale than just one person. I chose MSc in Toxicology & Environmental Health. Currently not working due to recent hospitalization. Previously worked as a consultant for an airline (hazardous substances, Health, Safety & Environment). Now exploring whether I can work as a freelance consultant so that I have more freedom and variety. 
My hobbies are playing the piano, metal detecting, bouldering, writing (fiction and poetry), reading pretty much any genre, but I lean most towards non-fiction and personal development books such as: Atomic Habits, The Subtle Art of Not Giving a Fuck, The Body Keeps the Score. But I also love a good tearjerker like A Little Life.
I don't make friends easily, which I find very unfortunate and would very much like to change. Only after I have spoken to someone several times do people often say that I am nicer than they initially thought. I think I sometimes come across as blunt or even arrogant, but this may just be Dutch directness and therefore a cultural difference in my often international conversations. It sometimes really keeps me awake at night that people think that way about me. I wouldn't hurt a fly and am more insecure than arrogant, in personal situations, work related I can be a bit arrogant but mostly just awkward in conversation. I don't readily organize social events myself, mainly because I think people aren't interested in hanging out with me. Fortunately, my husband is a social butterfly, and I actually like it when he drags me along, even though I sometimes resist. Otherwise, I think I would be very lonely, except for my best friend. My feelings are very intense. I can be extremely happy about something small, but also extremely sad, although few people get to see this. Unless I'm manic, then the whole world gets to see it (bipolar 1). 😅 The online tests always say INTJ, but when I read about it, I don't think it fits me at all. I didn't do in-depth reading so I am very open to all insights.
