Welcome to Nimave.nl – my personal website, and the place where I share what I’ve been seeing, creating and thinking about lately. Here you’ll find some of the things that move me: a photo, a book, an article, or a thought I keep turning over.


The name Nimavenl is a blend of my name — Nicole Verhaaf — and where I live: The Netherlands.

This isn’t a portfolio or a blog. Just a way to share a little of what I see, feel, and think, through photos, books, thoughts, and whatever’s been on my mind.

As a reasonably quiet and mostly private person, it feels like a big step to build a website, and share some of who I am and what makes me ‘me’ with the world. I hope that my words and my photos do most of the talking for me! However, if there’s more you’d like to know, please take a look at the About Me section of this website, connect through my social media (at the bottom of every page) or email me to get in touch.
