Born on a snowy day in the small town of Voorburg, The Netherlands, Ginny H.N.’s life began as part of a wandering journey—one that would shape her into the reflective and empathetic soul she is today. Shortly after her birth, Ginny was brought to Bangkok, Thailand, where she was lovingly raised by her grandmother. Her parents, whose lives required frequent travel, made the difficult yet selfless decision to entrust her care to trusted family members. This choice, rooted in love and sacrifice, was made to ensure Ginny’s safety and provide her with a stable upbringing, where she would learn life’s true values—hard work, grace, and the joy of simple living. Thailand became the home of her heart, nurturing her early years with love and stability.

Life’s path eventually led Ginny back to The Netherlands, where she faced the challenges of growing up in a world that often felt cold and unkind. Moving from one household to another, she struggled to find a sense of belonging. Depression and loneliness became familiar, yet even in her darkest moments, Ginny maintained a quiet curiosity about the human experience. From a young age, she was deeply attuned to the emotions of others, silently observing and piecing together the stories behind their faces. Without formal education in psychology, Ginny built her understanding of human behavior through the raw, unfiltered lessons of life—each hardship, fleeting connection, and moment of wonder contributing to her profound empathy and insight.
