Hello, we are Max and Julien from the Netherlands. We finished highschool last year and have been working and backpacking ever since. However, we're looking for a workaway experience to socialise, work, interact with other cultures and learn something new.

-Julien
I've worked at a restaurant in Amsterdam, but also at Joe and the Juice, a coffee/sandwich/juice place, so I've got experience in costumer service and basic food/coffee skills. I've also done tutoring of several subjects at my school for three years, which has given me some teaching skills. Dutch, English and French are the languages I can speak fluently. (My father is French, my mother Dutch). I like learning new skills.
-Max
I've worked for more than a year in a Dutch restaurant as a waiter and I have also helped sometimes behind the bar.
I have also worked three months in a sales-like company focused on helping people with energy-saving products to make their houses more sustainable.
These two jobs have given me experience with talking to clients and/or guests in a nice and professional way.
I speak English and Dutch fluently, and also have experience with the French language (I have a DELF B2-certificate, but my current level is certainly higher). I also speak some German and I am always willing to learn new languages.Age
