I love Wim!

About Me

I'm a free lance photographer. I'm a vegetarian. This is my guy, the love of my life. Wim! We met in February 2005. We fell in love and he traveled to the US to meet me. (his first time in the US) We met in person in May 2005. He stayed for 2 weeks. It was the most wonderful 2 weeks! He came back two more times in August and then again in October. In December I went to Holland. (My first time in Europe.) I spent 3 months in Holland. It was awesome there. We lived in a cute apartment, that Wim called our "love nest". He moved here in May 2006 from Holland. We got married on August 5th 2006! We are very happy.
