Growing up in an eager-to-travel family and, later on, sailing competitively for the Dutch Olympic Sailing team, I was fortunate enough to travel to many countries and discover many different cultures. After having to end my sailing career abruptly due to an injury, I knew my destiny… spreading the travel joy amongst others! From one thing came the other: an idea grew to become reality. To date I feel fortunate to be able to do what I do and, furthermore, when done right, we are solely dealing with happy guests! What’s not to like about that.
Knowing I grew up on a sailing school, it’s no secret that I enjoy my free time most when surrounded by water; either in liquid or frozen state (in the snowy mountains, that is!). You can find me sailing, windsurfing or kitesurfing anytime when the wind is right. But, when temperatures drop, I will happily trade in my surfboard for a snowboard.
My favorite travel destination: anywhere I have not been before.
