CURRENT MISSION

Develop sense of direction in both my personal and professional/creating life. Enjoying summertime.

ABOUT ME

I'm Sarah, 37 years old, living with my dog Guapa in Amsterdam, the 'small - big city' which I love because of the old centre and all the canals and rivers, the great offer of art and culture and the vibrant city life.
I graduated at The School of Writing as a writer for theatre, film and poetry.
Love both the city and nature (especially the seaside/ocean/summertime),
I dance Argentinian Tango and I'm a (arthouse)filmlover. Art - in different forms - is very important to me, so is personal growth and a conscious lifestyle. But I also highly appreciate the daily magical moments in life: walking on the beach with my dog and watching the sunset, dancing, hugging my nieces, laughing with friends and family, sleeping; being alive with a sense of wonder for everything around me.

PHILOSOPHY

Ring the bells that still can ring. Forget your perfect offering. There is a crack in everything. That's how the light gets in - Leonard Cohen
