About us

Feije van Eijndhoven

Feije van Eijndhoven is the Mount consultant who will climb mountains for you. We chose our name with care: Mount doesn’t only refer to climbing mountains, even though - as the saying goes, no mountain is too high - but it’s also a word for a horse. And ‘to mount’ means to get on to a horse. It might sound very ambiguous, but once you get to know us, you’ll get used to that. After all, a path is rarely straight, and has many branches, as you can see in our logo, which includes a horse’s head to represent our love of horses, a literal mountain, a leaf with two sides and our excellent antennae, sussing out the way ahead.

City girl

Born and bred in the city of Eindhoven with no connection to farming, Feije really wanted to become a vet. From an early age, she loved to draw all sorts of designs for riding schools, with stables and a swimming pool, and then build them with LEGO and Playmobil. She went on to study at a Technical University of Applied Sciences (HTS).

Vision for rural areas

With every assignment, Feije always got into trouble because she put in too much greenspace. She didn’t want to switch to landscape architecture, however, because she found urban planning far more challenging and felt it had a far broader range of topics. These included legal aspects, development, plant choices and PR.

Government employee

While she was still a student, Feije was given the opportunity to work in spatial planning for the local government, where she had plenty of opportunity to develop personally. None of her plans or her wish to grow were too much for the local authority. This opportunity proved to be a good foundation and a great learning experience. However, after ten years, it was time for a new challenge and Feije moved into consultancy. After several years working for other companies, she decided it was time to start her own business.

Passion for the outdoor life

Feije was four, when she saw a horse for the first time. Eventually her parents gave in and let her take riding lessons. From a young age, her love of large animals was clear. Her wonderful husband is also mad about horses, so they share the hobby. And Feije knows all about chasing your dreams. That’s why she’s keen to help other lovers of the outdoors make their dreams come true.
