Our Personal Goal
My 4 year experience of living in Europe showed me that many people in other countries and cultures
have a distorted and often inaccurate view of Americans and people of other nationalities.
Maarten and I would like to see that change. We believe the best way for people to erase the
stereotypes and fear is to meet and make friends with people from other cultures.

Our dream is that we build friendships between cultures
within our local communities around the globe and eventually erase
the misguided stereotypes and inaccurate information that is bred by fear
and lack of knowledge of other races and cultures.

At the end of each day there is only one race - the human one.

Together we can build global understanding and acceptance....and lasting friendship.
