Gabriella Franchi

I have been residing in Badhoevedorp for a little over three years with my partner. Previously, we lived in South Africa before relocating to the Netherlands in 2022. Born in Europe, we have truly enjoyed our time in this charming village.

I run a laser treatment studio called Goodphoria Laser Treatments, where I specialise in skin-focused treatments like tattoo removal, pigmentation correction, and laser hair removal. I love working one-on-one with clients to help them feel confident in their skin. Outside of work, I enjoy dining out, spending time with family, and exploring the Netherlands.

I really appreciate the sense of community in my neighbourhood, it feels friendly, safe, and easy to connect with people. There's a nice balance between quiet and activity, which I love.

When I first moved here, I was hoping for a calm, welcoming environment with a sense of community - somewhere that felt like home but also allowed space for growth, both personally and professionally. I'm happy to say that many of those hopes have come true. I’ve been pleasantly surprised by how supportive and open people are, and how easy it’s been to build good connections. I feel grateful to be part of this village.
