About Me

ABOUT ME

Hi, I'm Anja and I'm a nomadic worldcitizen! Until my 18th I had my social conditionings in Breda-Holland and took off beginning 80's to experience a world full of adventures, cultures,religions and contradictions. Did I ever know I would be going away for 22(!)years trotting the world doing all kinda jobs, visiting 96 countries and Polyglotting in 8 languages..?? Nope...but I did . Came back to Holland with a child born in Brasil which is my number ONE country! Lived back in Breda for 8 yrs and realized that I can't be re-conditioned so I followed my gipsy heart and wandered off again with my 8 yr old daughter for 1 yr Trotting around the world. Am physically back already for 2 yrs now but my spirit still wanders..

PHILOSOPHY

To travel the world all over to find the most beautiful...
WE must carry it with us or we will find it not....
Dont dream your life...live your dream!
