CURRENT MISSION

Make the world a bit more beautiful

ABOUT ME

People say about me that I am a walking 'Idea machine'. Hmm...that helps me doing my business as communication professional & publisher. The projects I work on are related to art, design & culture, communication, PR, events, publishing, new concepts, corporte design, corporate identity etc. I like travelling a lot and that is why I make travelreports and write as a traveljournalist as well. I live in Almere but I have a second home in Germany, Saale-Unstrut where me and my husband are renovating an old farm.

PHILOSOPHY

Life is a picknick!
And: throw your dreams and wishes in the air and probably the universe will send a surprise back to you. Especially when you're not waiting for it! You want to know more? I will always reply!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I think that this project can make a difference in the world. So I'm happy to be a part of it.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

We've always had a guestroom in our house for friends and familiy. At the moment we're renovating an antique farmhouse and are an 'open' house. That means that we host a lot of people (until now mostly friends and family) here...

Interests

Slow Food, travelling, contemporary art, other cultures, good wines, meeting other people, eco, making the world a bit more beautiful, cooking, people who found their passion. And our farmhouse in Germany near Naumburg/Freyburg/Halle where we will (after renovating during our holidays) have our parttime runned bed and breakfast and gallery....

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

We visited Iceland. Gulfos waterfalls, Blue Lagoon etc. For me it's a fairy-tail country! And we visited Olympos in Turkey (!) 20 years ago. Best holiday ever although the temperature was around 45 to 50 Celsius. And as told before, we bought our farm to renovate in Saale Unstrut, Germany. In a few years we'll maybe open our parttime runned bed and breakfast, vintage depot & art-gallery.
