Nynke de Jong writes three columns a week for Algemeen Dagblad and also works as a freelance journalist for radio, television, newspapers and magazines. And she would be happy to present your event. She once almost became De Slimste Mens and was a Blikvanger for Paul de Leeuw’s Sunday evening programme Kun je het al zien?. Sometimes she is a table guest on De Wereld Draait Door. In addition, she writes columns for Viva Mama and, together with Hanneke Hendrix and Alex van der Hulst, makes the podcast Ik Ken Iemand Die. She also wrote two books: Vrouw en Fiets, with Marijn de Vries, and Vrouw kijkt Sport. She lives in Utrecht with her husband and children.

Other competencies: she speaks fluent Frisian and played the bugle in a brass band for ten years, which means she always gets emotional when she hears someone playing that instrument.
