Our children recently left home so we are now just the two of us. Huub is masseur and runs a practice at home. Aletta is physiotherapist and works with mental retarded children. We both like to be outside in the nature: walking, cycling, running and swimming. That is why we enjoy to live so close to the forest. We have a very friendly cat. He always sits with Aletta when she does her daily meditation. Huub is a true sports guy (doing and watching) and Aletta loves to read. We both appreciate a good meal indoors (Aletta likes to cook) and outdoors (in a good restaurant). We have a healthy lifestyle, spent a good deal of our time with family and friends and enjoy life. We are experienced house exchangers.
