I was born and raised in The Netherlands, and moved to the USA in 1985, to earn my MBA degree from the Darden School of Business in Charlottesville, Virginia. After my studies, I worked on Wall Street for 4 years, and in 1991 moved to Paris with my French husband. I was a professor of Business English there and thoroughly enjoyed teaching. After 6 years in the city of light, and the birth of our oldest daughter, our family moved to Stockholm, Sweden. Our second daughter was born there, and the family enjoyed the natural beauty and people there very much. However, we always wanted to introduce our children to the beauty of the American landscape and the generosity of the American people and so, when an opportunity presented itself, our family packed up and settled in the United States. First in Tennessee, then Alabama, and finally in Connecticut, where we have been living for the past 12 years. I love the intense beauty of all the seasons in New England, the proximity to New York City, my old stomping ground, and the quiet country life, where you can stroll through quaint little towns, buy your produce and eggs at local farms and hike up to waterfalls and through beautiful natural parks. I am excited to be able to share all that New England beauty through my property and hopes that you will have many beautiful experiences and create lifelong memories there.
