Hey, I’m Barbara en Patrick!
Vegan · Grayslake, Illinois (near Chicago) · Joined in January 2023
Patrick and I love nature, cultural experiences, cats and supporting independent shops/restaurants, particularly vegan ones! I'm vegan, Patrick is mostly vegetarian. We were both born in the Netherlands, live in USA and are fortunate to have both Dutch and American citizenship.
Favourite Books, Music & Movies
We love libraries. My favorite author is Phillipa Gregory, who inspired a love of historical fiction both in books and on screen. On the other end of the spectrum, we are also Star Trek and Star Wars fans.
