Hoi An, Vietnam & British Columbia, Canada

I am a creative, curious and reflective human being. As a French and Physical Education teacher (Bonjour!), an auntie, a sister, and a friend, I have a lot of joy and love surrounding me.

I pride myself on the simple things; trying new foods and sports, blowing bubbles, and having friendly handstand contests. Gymnastics was a big part of my early years, and being active outdoors plays a big role in my life now. I love to camp, surf, climb, play beach volleyball, snowboard, and roll down hills whenever I see fit!

Speaking of hills, my big last name means "From The Hill" in an old Dutch dialect, and I am proud of my Belgian heritage.

I strive to be an average cook, a thoughtful recycler, and a kind human being.

And that's me.
