Description

Hello everyone!

I'm Miranda, 51 years old and my travelling adventure will start in September.
It's been a dream for many years to visit Australia again, so now I will!

I come from a village of 5000 inhabitants. I lived in the countryside until I was 18, went abroad for more then a year to study, then moved to the city Deventer to start my working career.
I've finished Art school, specialized in photography, worked in small studios and shops for quit some time. Later on I have changed my career to logistics. Huge fan of big trucks, vessels and planes. Worked for several big companies doing administrative work, planning, organizing etc.

Time to make a change, there must be more to life than this. Made a solo trip to Nepal last year and spend 3 months there. When I was 17 I traveled with a friend for 3 months in Australia, Wanted to go back for a longer adventure, but due to several things never got to it.
But now I will!!

I am a fairly versatile person, I do a little bit of everything, I like to participate in completing projects and creating new ones. Don't worry, I always try to avoid problems. And if they occur, try to resolve them as quickly as possible. Be independent, try lots of things to do by myself, but wont hesitate to ask for help if something doesn't work out.

I like to always be in contact with the earth. I have done voluntary work in Holland. For 3 years now I help on a vineyard, picking grapes. Love being outdoors, love nature, unexpected landscapes and experiences. Make long hikes as well, love to be among nature. And if Holland wouldn't be as flat as it is, you could find me in the mountains, there are really stunning.

I also love art. Spent lot of time in art galleries around Holland. And read lots of books, I visit the library weekly. Like to travel around, meeting new people, making contact and learn from them.
I'm very open-minded about learning new things and improving skills because I'm a curious and enthusiastic person. In my opinion, getting to know new cultures and people make our world interesting and beautiful, and I would like to be a part of that:)
