About Me<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

My name is Annabelle Delport. I grew up in Germany and spent many years living in the Netherlands before moving to Seychelles in 2025 with my Seychellois husband.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Living in different countries has shaped a big part of how I see the world and the way I work with people. I know from personal experience that moving abroad can bring exciting opportunities alongside challenges around cultural transitions, identity, belonging, and sometimes feeling far away from what is familiar. At the same time, these experiences can also create space for personal growth and a deeper understanding of yourself.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Outside of my work, I feel most at home in nature. I love hiking, spending time around animals, and painting \u2014 things that help me slow down, stay curious, and stay connected to the world around me.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
