Description
Hi! I’m Quinte (or Quin) . A curious, creative soul from Amsterdam, currently on sabbatical in Asia to reconnect, grow, and explore new ways of living.
And I’ll admit… also escaping the Dutch rain.
I’m the youngest of five (hence the name Quinte!) and have always loved being around people. I have a background in psychology and branding/communication, and recently completed a yoga teacher training: a big step in my journey toward a more holistic and meaningful way of working and living.
Over the years, I’ve become especially interested in how we can bring together psychological insight with tools like art, mindfulness, movement, nature and animals. I believe in healing and learning through experience, creativity and connection . Whether that’s helping a child express emotion through painting, supporting someone through breath and bodywork, or simply caring for animals with presence and patience.
I’ve volunteered in various places: at a primary school, a dog shelter, and with rescued elephants. These experiences taught me a lot. Not only about care, but about humility, cultural sensitivity, and the quiet power of being fully present.
People often describe me as warm, open-minded, creative and somehow always smiling. I try to bring lightness and depth at the same time, and I genuinely believe that every culture, every encounter, and every task - big or small - can be an opportunity to learn and grow.
Looking forward to meeting you,
Quin

What else ...
I love painting, singing, being in nature, writing in my journal and having long, soul-filling conversations. I find joy in the small things: good coffee, animals being silly, or leafs moving in the wind.
I believe the world becomes softer when we listen more, judge less, and stay curious. And I’d love to meet you somewhere along the way :)
