My story started in Curaçao, where I was born. After that, I spent nine years living in the Netherlands, learning that sunshine is something you should never take for granted! Then I came to Aruba for what was supposed to be just a vacation... but Aruba had other plans. I fell in love with this One Happy Island. Most of my career has been in sales, so talking to people comes naturally (don't worry I also know how to listen!). I've worked with Yellow Pages, Real Estate, and eventually found my true passion in the tourism industry. Every guest has a story, and I love hearing them just as much as sharing Aruba's. I'm a certified tour guide with a passion for history and culture. I enjoy diving into Aruba's fascinating past from the days of the Caquetío Indians and the first settlers to the vibrant island we know today. I've learned from books, online research, and, best of all, from local Arubans whose stories bring our history to life. I believe the best tours are more than just sightseeing. They're about laughter, great conversations, hidden gems, local flavors, and creating memories. By the end of our tour, I hope you won't just leave with beautiful photos you'll leave as a true friend of Aruba.
