The story
From session musician
to Bali.
For years I played stages and studios across the Netherlands. On the side, I trained calisthenics in the park every day, where a community of 60 people naturally formed around it.
In early 2026 I left everything behind and moved to Bali. Not for a holiday, but to write my debut album, build new communities, and live life on my own terms.
This isn’t a finished story. This is the middle.
The Journey
Everything I create,
I share.
No highlight reel. The real story: the ups, the downs, and everything in between. Follow along on YouTube and Instagram.
The process
From session musician to solo artist. Writing a debut album, the doubts, the breakthroughs.
The transition
Leaving everything in the Netherlands and starting from zero in Bali. The financial reality, the uncertainty, the freedom.
Building community
From 60 people in a Dutch park to the Golden Hour Club in Bali. How you bring people together.
Learning in public
Flying drones, building apps, running a business online. Don’t wait until you’re an expert. Just start.
Moments
Small flashbacks from the journey. From rain to sun, and everything between.
Music
The debut album.
Written in Bali.
After years playing for others, it’s time for my own music. In Bali I’m writing and producing my debut album: everything I’ve learned, in one project.
Below are the first two tracks. Still raw, still evolving, but real. From first idea to release, I’m sharing the entire process.

Fitness
From a park
to an app.
In the Netherlands I trained in the park daily and shared everything on Instagram. A community of 60 people formed around it. The power of just starting and staying consistent.
Now I’m building that again in Bali. Calisthenics paired with gym work, delivered through the byNigel app for online coaching. Available on the App Store.
