ABOUT ME

A Knowmad. I'd describe myself as a curious person, interested in all kinds of real-life stories. I am a big lover of stories, telling, hearing, reading, witnessing. I love to live in moments of real-ness, when you see this spark in people's eyes, when everything around you is suddenly brighter, clearer. I'd love to live from one beautiful real moment to another.

These days, I'm working on starting Knowmads Business School Spain and lots of interesting things happen every day.

PHILOSOPHY

one of the most important phrases I was told in my life is that one:
"If it's not fun, don't do it,
if you have to do it, make it fun" (Ministry of fun)

another thing that took me some time to understand was the fact that all that happens to you is only dependend on one person, you. It is just you who can influence your life and change it if necessary, noone else will do that.

And; there's always hope.

I call them my bible in three parts.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

have been alive!

Teach, Learn, Share

I studied at Knowmads Business School Amsterdam (knowmads.nl), learned about personal development, leadership and social entrepreneurship.

I'm currently preparing the opening of the Knowmads School in Sevilla. I can tell about the global and european educational revolution, about amazing people and exciting initiatives.

Also, I'm an animal communicator and do shamanic work (ask!), do body work (TTouch) and like to discuss spiritual stuff on a grounded level.

I travelled 4 continents and am happy to share stories and receive yours!
