[NDL] Hallo allemaal! Ik heet Pieter en ik ben de maker van “Op z’n Vlaams”. Ik ben geboren en getogen in Leuven, een gezellige stad in Vlaams-Brabant, maar woon nu in Brussel. Door in Vlaanderen op te groeien, ben ik als kind met verschillende talen in contact gekomen. Via televisie leerde ik snel Engels en van jongs af aan had ik Franse lessen op school. Daar ben ik zeer dankbaar voor, want die talen hebben me naar interessante plaatsen gebracht met al even interessante mensen.
Mijn passie voor Vlaams, en de grote diversiteit aan tussentalen en dialecten hierin, is echter later gekomen, door te reizen. Het was pas toen ik ver van huis was dat ik mijn eigen taal ten volste begon te appreciëren. Het is die passie die ik via deze weg wil delen met jullie gezien elke taal een deur opent naar een nieuwe wereld en nieuwe ervaringen.
[ENG] Hi all! My name is Pieter and I’m the maker of ‘Op z’n Vlaams’. I was born and raised in Leuven, a cozy city in Vlaams-Brabant, but now I live in Brussels. Because I grew up in Flanders as a child I came into contact with different languages. Through television I learned English rapidly and from a young age I had French classes in school. For that I am very grateful, because those languages brought me to interesting places with equally interesting people.
My passion for Flemish however, and the big diversity in in-between languages and dialects herein, came later due to travelling. It was only when I was far away from home that I truly started to fully appreciate my own language. It’s this passion that I want to share with you as every language opens a door to a new world and new experiences.
