ABOUT ME
We are a Dutch / Chinese couple with a mixed child, born in 2010.
Jan is the Dutch and he went to China in 2005 to work there as an environmental consultant, starting a sort of 2nd life. Sunny was born on Hainan island, moved to Guangdong (Canton) at 4 years age, where she grew up. It happened in 2008 that Jan had to move to Guangzhou, where Sunny lived at that time. Would Jan not have had a rest outside the Tian he shopping mall and drinking a beer there, they would never have met. But Sunny asked Jan to make a photo of her with the wall decoration in the back ground. That was the start of their romance, love and marriage. In 2009 they moved to Shanghai where they got a lovely mixed Dutch-Chinese baby (Enya). After that, in 2010 they moved to Guangdong were they live in a relatively quiet town surrounded by nature. End of 2014 we decided to move to Europe and found a nice and quiet place in Oud-Turnhout, close to Turnhout, in Flanders,Belgium, where we live now and enjoy the European / Belgium life style.
PHILOSOPHY
Do good to others and they will be nice for you too
