Ans from the Netherlands. acvdwal@planet.nl
My name is Ans van der Wal.  I live in the south of The Netherlands, in Steebergen, in the middle between Rotterdam and Antwerpen.  In my region are some woods and beautiful sea inlets.  Steenbergen is a very samll city, but it has everything you need to live comfortably.  The distances are not big here, so it is easy to go to the big city of Rottermam.
I was born in l955, also in the south of the country, but at the east side.  I am married since l980.  My husband's name is Erik.  I have been working as a teacher with children from 6 to 12 years old at a school close to Gouda, the city well known by the Gouda cheese.  Due to a car accident I cannot do this job anymore.  My knee is injured, and I cannot stand a long time anymore.  So now I do some translation work from Dutch into the German Language, and sometimes I will work as a substitute teacher.  I studied the German language too.
Since l970 I am a Zorro/Guy fan.  In April l999 I rediscovered Zorro on vacation in Hawaii and since that time I am really obsessed.  Since October l999 I am a member of the GWFriendslist.  I like it here very much, being among real friends.  Zorro and Guy take a lot of my time now and I never regretted it one second.
I like traveling, making teddybears, putting big puzzles together, taking pictures of the nature, gardening, going to the mountains, which are at least 600 miles away from my house, and cooking.  Of course I am a Zorro collector.
I also like being busy at the computer and playing with both the normal and the slides scanner.  Adobe also keeps me busy and it will take years to learn things programs well.

My husband works in The Hague at the provincial department for the environment.  He tries to reduce our waste.
We live in a detached house, with 3 floors, and a nice garden with a small pond.  We don't have any pets except the teddybears.
