Music and nature have always been my inspiration and passion. Growing up near Freiburg, I spent most of my childhood in the forest.
Two decades later, my studies in architecture brought me to Rio de Janeiro. During a retreat in the rainforest, the magic of music led me to the guitar.
Years later, while living in Switzerland and working internationally as an SAP consultant, I began dreaming of a place where music could flow freely—a space to create and share, embraced only by the forest.
That dream became a reality in 2021 when I discovered Steinweiden.
Renovating the space has been a grand adventure, and the Casa was our first project. The vision was to create a crystal of healing energy—a sound temple, the heart of Steinweiden, to share this space with others.
Whether through sound healing, singing, yoga, meditation, dancing, or other transformative practices—feel warmly invited to celebrate the beauty of life!

I was born in the Netherlands and spent 20 years working as an international corporate lawyer before embarking on a new path.
During my personal journey, marked by challenges and deep self-reflection, I came to understand that life holds a deeper truth—one that goes far beyond mere self-optimization. Motivated by a desire to fully embrace life and support others on their journeys, I undertook comprehensive training in coaching and yoga. Today, I am a certified Integral Coach, therapist, and Hatha-Kundalini Yoga teacher.
My experiences inspired me to make bold decisions—one of which was to purchase Steinweiden with Andy to create a retreat center. My goal is to offer people a space in nature where they can pause and reconnect with themselves. I manage the organization and smooth running of the center, creating a warm and welcoming atmosphere.
My heartfelt aim is for every guest to feel welcomed and cared for. I lovingly prepare delicious vegetarian dishes that enrich the retreat experience, nourishing both body and soul. It brings me immense joy to offer our beautiful retreat center as a sanctuary for those seeking personal renewal and inner peace.
