CURRENT MISSION

Discovering Colombia, visiting my family,doing some volunteer work and I want to learn spanish! but most of all just enjoying life..

ABOUT ME

I'm an open person, what you see is what you get. Furthermore I can not stand injustice. I can well empathize with other people and find other cultures very interesting. Love nature and animals. I'm a little bit crazy (who is not ;-) ) and really like laughter and positive people around me. I am a good mediator, and nothing is just black or white with me.

I was born in Bogota, but I lived all my live in the Netherlands. I always wanted to go back to Colombia to learn the culture and to visit my family. And now that I had the opportunity to stay in Colombia for a whole year I had to go. I work as a volunteer at a foundation for underprivileged children. In November I'm going back to Bogota.

PHILOSOPHY

"The greatest glory in living
lies not in never falling,
but in rising every time we fall.
— Nelson Mandela

Education is the most powerful weapon which you can use to change the world."
— Nelson Mandela

And i also think that when you treat everyone with respect and equality the world would be a little bit better. Always have a smile to give and focus on what you have instead of what you don't have...
