Jen Minkman was born in the Netherlands in 1978. Although she has always written stories in Dutch, the poems and lyrics she writes are almost exclusively in English.

Likewise, the poems in this audiobook mark my walk of life and should be listened to in order to keep my soul alive and help me find my way.
