I’m Sanne, a Dutch gal who moved to England for a new adventure (and to find a job in publishing) over 10 years ago and never left. If you’re looking for tips on trips around the UK and the Netherlands, London food recommendations, all with an eye on slow living and a focus on literature and historical buildings, you’re in the right place. Besides being a literary content creator, I’m also a freelance social media producer and consultant in the publishing industry.

Join me on a Wuthering Heights Pilgrimage

(ad) I’m hosting a Wuthering Heights Literary Pilgrimage to Yorkshire with @commongroundpilgrimages next year! I’ll be joining the Common Ground staff as Faculty Leader for their very first Wuthering Heights pilgrimage September 6th-11th 2024. I’ve chosen the theme of ‘imagination’ for this trip, and as Faculty Leader I’ll be hosting all the classes and workshops. Find more information here or on my announcement post.

Hope to see some of you in Yorkshire in 2024!
