Ons kersvers gezin omvat een flinke dochter (21/03/2020), een fantastische moeder (04/05/1981) en een papa (07/09/1978), jong van geest.
De meeste tijd brengen wij door in onze recent aangekochte stulp, gelegen in een prachtig stuk natuurgebied aan de Kalmthoutse Heide. Vakantie in eigen huis! Wij werken beide als onderwijzers op een 20tal kilometers van onze woonplaats.
