  • Description

    Hi, my name is Leslie and I am originally from the Netherlands, Amsterdam.
    Last fall I decided to travel to Nepal and India for nine months. During this trip I realized that this was going to be the start of a new way of living. Going around without a plan creates unexpected moments and encounters, which is what I like best.
    Right now, I still go around the world, but I also realized that I like to actually 'live' or 'be' in different places for a longer period of time. To be part of daily life. It gives me the opportunity to slow down in many ways and see what a place really has to offer or what I could bring.

    When I am back home in Amsterdam I work as a dentist (for the past 7 years), but besides that I have a lot of experience in hospitality, organising trips, retreats, workshops and organisation on management level.
    I teach yoga and I give human design readings. However, I am open for any other task or project that comes along. I super proactive, driven and enthousiastic!

  • More details about your skills

    Originally, I am a self employed dentist and I worked as one for the past 7 years.

    Besides that I worked in hospitality for a long time (bars/restaurants), in child daycare and I recently completed my yoga teacher training.

    I am organized, service orientated, punctual and I am used to hard work and being concentrated for the entire time my work lasts (the 8 am patient deserves the same quality as the 5pm patient after all). I am a peoples person(maybe even a pleaser) and I like to really listen to what other people bring to the table. Although I recharge my battery when I am alone, I love being in social places.

    From time to time I like a good class of wine, but I am not interested in party places.
