Désirée Driesenaar
I'm a woman in business & tech, an educator, and a hugely imaginative wild writer. I am very intuitive and practical.
Since 2012, I redesign economies and ecologies. I'm in touch with many architects, math professors, quantum physicists, and others. I do projects about Healthy Buildings. Financials. Sustainability in cheaper ways.
Not rocket science. Rather simple. Stop & Go. Synergy. Validating stranded assets and unused potential. I speak the language of leaders.
​
And I live and work on a community farm Peppelhof with a few of the the most innovative farmers, truckdrivers, electricians, eco-builders, anthroposophical teachers, parents, children, and grandparents. Mike and I are grandparents of 4.
​
My professional experiences are wide, management-level, and international. You can find my profile on LinkedIn.​
​
Half of the year, we work on a project in Greece. Peloponnese Living. Blue-Green Peloponnese.
​
We have a newsletter on Substack. And I wrote 700+ stories on Medium. We also have a YouTube Channel.
​
Welcome to our changemakers' world...

Warm regards, Desiree
Mike Harps
In 2012, my life clicked together on Mount Everest in Nepal. My professional work was in transport & logistics.
I became a pioneer in a regenerative Dutch rural project. Peppelhof by Stichting Phien soon after.
Now, there is 39 ha of rewilded land and water. 3 farms. 39 families. "Building Paradise". Also a documentary on national Dutch TV.
I've always loved airplanes, birds, cars, trucks, water, sea, cultures and travel. I'm sporty and a granddad. I'm intuitive and I "feel" life enfold. I see futures just like Desiree does. Living like a pilgrim.
Adventurous and walking with mindfulness.

Warm regards, Mike Harps
