ABOUT ME

Hello :)
As a half Dutch - half Hungarian, international folk dancing girl, you can not deny that I'm quite a bit culturally oriented :) I was born and still live in the Netherlands, but I have lived for one semester in Budapest as an Erasmus student, an amazing experience. Currently, I work as a psychologist and continue to educate myself in different fields: like clientcentered psychotherapy and ACT. Next to that, I am an active dancer, part of an International Folkdance group in Amsterdam, with whom I travel to an international dancefestival almost every year. This group combines 2 of my big passions; dancing and travelling. Next to that I love (experimenting with making) music. I play the piano since I was 9 years old, and gave a 'sponsor' concert to earn my own piano for in my student room. When I was 14 I bought a cheap violin in Romania, because I'm in love with the Hungarian folk music. During the semester in Budapest I took some violinlessons as well form a folk musician. Besides, I love being inspired. Interesting books and movies, philosophical/reflective/spiritual talks... :) My personality tends to being really social (hanging a lot around with friends, parties, meeting new people), but I can really enjoy being alone once in a while as well.

PHILOSOPHY

There is nothing either good or bad, but thinking makes it so - shakespeare
