FERRYWOMAN MAREN
Erraid is a place you either love at first sight, or you don’t want to return to. You’ll only know which it is for you when you go there. Some of the lovers, often to their own surprise, find themselves staying on for months or even years. One of them is Maren Koopmann, who stayed for three and a half years. In the photo she steers the small boat that takes visitors to and from the island.

Did Experience Week in May 2004, together with my wife Eveline. The following 6 years we went to Findhorn at least twice a year, doing programmes or just staying in a B&B. We became Resource Persons and organised our own little Findhorn-inspired programme in our home-town Groningen in the Netherlands (called “Singing, Dancing, Celebrating”). We started Transition Town Groningen in 2018, which actually was Findhorn-inspired. In December 2010 we moved to Findhorn, leaving our careers and Dutch life behind.
We both did the LEAP programme and then I became staff of Findhorn College. Since 2014 I am working as a sole trader, handyman. In 2017 I took over organising Sunday Group Hill Walks from Jonathan Caddy and have been organising those since then.
