After that she has worked with families and young people for non-profit organisations in Amsterdam.  “I enjoy exploring life with people from different cultural backgrounds and seeking together ways to better connect with life, ourselves and one other. There are very few things that excite me more than seeing growth and transformation in people’s lives that cause whole families, communities and eventually societies change into something more beutiful, more real.
