Originally from Holland (hence the tulips), but born in Belgium - a short hop on the Eurostar from where I now live in London. In a previous life I worked at the Futures Company, making short films and interviewing people across the country about wide-ranging issues such as debt and parenting. I also ran a blog about slow travel called 'slowmoves', which was all about travelling overland, taking the time to absorb the sights and landscapes and acclimatising to a new place.

Green travel for me is about discovering unique, off-the-beaten track places and getting immersed in local culture, whether that means staying in a family-run bed & breakfast, volunteering on an organic farm in Haute-Savoie or being shown around by locals in Slovenia. I have recently been to Burgundy, the Black Sea coast, Cornwall, and Emilia Romagna. Where next? Montenegro!
