Germany / The Netherlands
I'm a Dutch freelance journalist living in Hamburg, Germany. I do online, print, radio and video in Dutch, English and German. My areas of interest are travel, political activism, sustainable energy and social entrepreneurship. Currently I'm helping to set up "Gute Leute" - Hamburg's first English language magazine - and doing research into journalism and sustainable memory for Hamburg University.
I'm the lead editor for Gute Leute Magazine, the first English language print magazine in Hamburg, that portrays the citizens of Hamburg through visual stories -all with an international twist! We're working hard on getting the first edition to print.

For iFly KLM Magazine I wrote about (mountain) biking routes through Norway. Original text is Dutch, translated into German and English.
For iFly KLM Magazine I interviewed award-winning Indian photographer Aman Chotani about his photography and his travels through his home country of India.
