Barbara is from California, Marc is from the Netherlands. We lived in Belgium for 18 years, our 3 kids were born there. We speak mostly Dutch at home. We moved to California in 2012 for work and the wonderful Californian climate.
We are an active family. We love to go on hikes, surfing, mountain biking, skiing, camping in our tiny 1957 Westener travel trailer. So for us Joshua Tree and 29 Palms are heaven. Delicious healthy food, fun people, fun things to do, lots of activity and then come home to a relaxing and cozy house for baking, cooking and playing board games.
