Arianne Hoogstrate Boer Zoekt Vrouw, Digi Mart USA News (Kloetinge, Netherlands): The television adventure of 55-year-old Arianne Hoogstrate from Kloetinge began Monday evening with the first broadcast of Boer Zoekt Vrouw. Presenter Yvon Jaspers brought a small folder of letters to Kloetinge.
That was somewhat disappointing, but Arianne remained level-headed. According to her, ultimately “only one is needed.” The farmer runs a vegetable and fruit farming business on Zomerweg near Kloetinge.
She hopes to find love again through the popular television dating program. Arianne divorced 15 years ago.
She is looking for a “country man” with a “wild, nicely tanned head.”
In Monday evening’s broadcast, two “Drenthe letters” were highlighted. The first response came from Sietse, who, like Arianne, has a motorcycle license.
“Bingo,” the farmer said enthusiastically.
The second letter came from Bart-Jan, who moved from Drenthe to Zeeland. He writes that he hopes to be that “cool guy” and that she is his favorite.
This year, Boer Zoekt Vrouw breaks with its traditional Sunday broadcast schedule. Until November 27, the KRO-NCRV is airing an episode every weekday.
Tonight, the candidates go on speed dates based on the letters received.
Whether Arianne faces the usual ten men this evening remains uncertain due to the sparse response. Arianne nonetheless looks back with satisfaction: “There weren’t many, but two stand out.”
