About me

Gender Female
Occupation Full time parent(hood)
Location Eindhoven, Noord Brabant, Netherlands
Introduction I am an cultural anthropologist/sociologist. Anthropologists are known for thinking out of the box. I like to compare cultures and debate about the emancipation of men and women in our global society. I live together with Alex in Eindhoven. We have a daughter Sofia of 2 years old. My hobbies are walking in nature and cooking. I give workshop to (foreign) women to make them aware about womens' position in our world economy and politics. What social policy do WE want to write for ourselves and how do WE want to do it. Key issue and first step is to unite women and create a local platform in Eindhoven. My intention is to inspire, encourage and support women. But most of all to learn from each others experiences.
