Description
Hey! I am languageteacher and love learning new languages - especially the language of the countries I visit. I am happy to find here a beautiful possibility of exploring new countries, cultures and people. In fact, I prefer travelling by train and boat, being aware of the pollution and noise of aeroplanes, so my first voyages will be in big and beautiful Europe. But... my daughter moved to New Zealand, my cousin lives in Seattle - so I guess one time in my live I will choose to travel around the world!
I love nature, gardening, walking, playing piano, dancing, reading and writing - I see forward to get inspiration by meeting and working together with new people and experience new landscapes!Interests

I teach Dutch to foreign people, people from Europe and all over the world. Together we talk about our different countries, and the differences between our languages. I also teach German to Dutch people, and am translator German and French.
When I am not teaching I go outside. Help my mother with gardening her 3000m2, full of flowers, fruit trees and vegetables. My balcony is a small garden where I try to make my alternative sub-tropical edible and insectfriendly potterygarden. Or I go walking or cycling and listen the birds.
I love to create things in many ways... playing music on the piano, writing stories, weaving, baking. And love to think about how to make homes comfortable, practical and beautiful. During my live I have restaurated 2 old houses. And though this is not my biggest hobby, I like it when working with the right people.Age
