自我介绍

So a bit about me: I am a 4th generation Indian born in Kenya in the middles 70s. I had the privilege to go to the French School in Nairobi and hence was a polyglot by the age of 6. I have grown up and still live in a multi-lingual and multi-cultural environment (my family consists of Indian-Kenyans, French, Dutch and Swedish). I think of myself as a true global citizen with no attachment or affiliation to nationality, culture, race, religion or sexual orientation. I believe that these are the things that separate us rather than unite us. I love people who are open-minded, willing to explore the boundaries of Self (or Selves) and who have broken free (or striving to break free) from the illusionary world that we currently live in and who enjoy digging into the un-ending and un-answerable questions of existence. And a bit about the cottage: having grown up in Kenya with wide open spaces I suffered from the lack of it in Holland when I moved here in 2006. I nearly immediately started looking for a small place that would give me a break from civilisation with enough greenery and wildlife and with a bit of a garden for my two dogs Laika and Mishka. Finally in 2012 I found my beautiful cottage “Paulus”! What I loved most about it was that it was not on any big holiday park and I was surrounded by beautiful old trees and the cottage was so fairy-tale like. Over the years, the cottage has been renovated to truly make it my little piece of heaven on earth!
