A globetrotter

With no shadow of doubt when asked which words define me best I say: globetrotter, hands-on, passionate, committed & curious.

I am all about people, connections, learning, culture, my daughter Kendra, family ,pets and gardening. Travelling is also a big love in my life as it keeps my world open to opportunities and learning.

A misfit

My work took me to live in places like Armenia, Honduras, Costa Rica and Italy and work in many others as short term consultant. When I moved to my parents’ home country – The Netherlands, I discovered that I was not who I thought I was, a Dutch woman, but a 3rd culture kid -TCK-, discovering a new world I thought I knew. For many years I could not understand why I felt unwelcome, a misfit in my parents’ homeland. Now, I know the reason! It is my parents’ homeland -not mine- and I cannot fill the expectations of the Dutch. And that is OK. I am still learning how to fit, how to accept and how to enjoy life in The Netherlands…. If I only could bring the tropics here!!
