“Let us be grateful to people who make us happy;
they are the charming gardeners who make our souls blossom.”
   - Marcel Proust

My parents: Betty and Andre
They taught me to be independent, organized, honest and adventurous and they told me that I could do anything I wanted. They are still supporting me, believing in me and proud of what I have achieved so far. What else can I, as a daughter wish for? I’m grateful for them and the knowledge that whatever happens in my life, they will always be there to support me, care for me and love me.

Andy and Dedy
Andy, thank you for being my Big Brother, it is good to know that whenever I need you, you will be there for me.
My niece, Dedy, already knew when she was born what I found out years later - she is my angel, and my Heaven on earth.

The people of the spiritual community “Venwoude” in Holland
What is Venwoude?
Venwoude is a place where new ways of cooperation and community life are being developed and put to the test in daily life, based on a shared vision that is constantly evolving.
Venwoude also is a place where a variety of workshops and professional trainings in the field of personal growth and leadership are being developed and offered to the public. These now also include several workshops in practical spirituality.
And above all, Venwoude is a place where people simply meet each other in their longing for a
life of inspiration and fulfillment, in attunement to the greater whole.
