CURRENT MISSION

ABOUT ME

A happy family with three daughters (16, 12 and 5years old)and a son (3 year)
SYLVIE
I am a 24h actress! On stage or in real life I am a drama queen!Sometimes people like it, but sometimes I'm a real pain in the ass! Learn to live with it is what I say!
When I have some spare time (when the kids are in bed, yes it's possible to combine work and family and to enjoy it!)I like to read, to see good movies ('Budascoop' Kortrijk yeah!!) and of course to discuss them with friends in the nearest pub...
As an actress I'm working on a street performance for the next summer. (sometimes I play in films or for fun, plays with the local friends).
With my boyfriend, I do a lot of sight-seeing all over Europe. Most of the time in Italy or Eastern Europe.

JENS
And I'm learing to live with a girl who calls herself an 'pain in the ass' ;-).
Besides my work with disables persons I play football in the local team (and of course I like the after-football the most (in the local pub who supports the team and the team supports the pub).

PHILOSOPHY

SYLVIE
It is never too late to do the things you want to do!
Your mind is like a parachute, it works better when it's open!

JENS
ik ben goed, ik ben zeer goed, maar ik ben geen speelgoed :-) (I am good, I am very well but I am not a toy)
