Karina van Ginkel writes, “Since moving to London in 2015, life has been anything but boring. I’ve moved five times, had five different jobs, gotten married, welcomed two little boys – Axel (3.5) and Bodi (1.5) – and added a dog, Cali, to the mix, all while keeping my passport well-used. I’ve been married to Zach Farmer since 2021, and after years of joyful chaos, we’re finally feeling settled in a lovely corner of East Dulwich. I’m now working as a sustainability consultant, doing work I genuinely care about, raising two energetic kids and still finding time to travel whenever possible. Keeping me on my toes, but in the best way.” 2007 Jacques Holzmann and Nani Echarte de Soto, Co-Chairs of D.R.E.A.M. (Dynamic RE Alumni Minis), hosted Alumni Family Day on January 10, 2026.
