‘I have been around in Wageningen for a while now, and there are plenty of topics related to the university and city that serve as an inspiration. My year on the board of the student union will likely also influence my choice of topics. But the topic need not always be a significant societal issue. Sometimes I enjoy writing about personal issues.’
When he is not writing, you may find Steven running or walking through the countryside surrounding Wageningen. He also enjoys releasing the frustrations of the day on the squash courts. ‘Anyone who wants to invite me to a game of squash is welcome, as are those wanting to discuss blog topics. I enjoy a physical and intellectual challenge.’
