Tiny House course meeting with Marie Kondo expert!
The online course ‘Your Tiny House – from dream to reality’ that I developed together with Monique van Orden is available since April this year.

Hurray, a successful Jamboree!
It took six months of preparation. Dozens of volunteers were involved. No less than 15 Tiny Houses were there for people to see. And there were thousands of visitors. The first Tiny House Nederland Jamboree has taken place! And it was an overwhelming success! As the project leader for Tiny House Nederland and fire starter […]
We’re jamming like crazy
My blogging activities are at a low level at the moment. I’ve been incredibly busy these past few weeks, and I’m looking forward to taking it easy for a while. How about a vacation! That’s coming soon; I just have to hang in there a little bit. Of course it’s great that things are going […]
Workshop: make your own soap!
On a beautiful sunny Thursday I was sitting on my deck with Cisca from Zeepziederij aan het IJ talking about biodegradable soap and other care products.

Greetings from Groningen, and Enschede!
As I was driving back from Enschede the other day I thought to myself: I would have never dreamt of this when I first embarked on this adventure! I have been to so many new places, had so many new experiences and met so many interesting people, how rich my life is! And that’s what […]
Money Matters
Money…what a horrible subject to talk about, right? A necessary evil but I will discuss it here anyway because it’s on my mind quite a bit. In various ways. I read yesterday that my bank is investing in a gigantic chicken factory in the Ukraine – that was the final straw for me. I had […]
A weekend full of Tiny House meetings
It was so very quiet for a while, it seemed as if everything had come to a halt. And that made me rather jittery. I’ve lost momentum! My motivation will disappear next! What if people believe that it won’t happen! Insecurities… (you know what I mean) ;) But this weekend was totally different, because I […]
