Description
Hello,
My name is Riekje. But you can call me Ricky for my name is a name you will probably only be able to pronounce if you are dutch.
I just finished my bachelor in environmental sciences at Wageningen University.
I crave some valuable real life experiences to break up my life as a student.
I want to meet new people, learn new skills, see beautiful landscapes and eat good food. I am a fast learner and a good listener and I don't take myself too seriously. I have stayed at many different workaways and I treasure the memories of each place I visit.Centres d’intérêt

I am a creative mind but also a technical thinker. I like to combine the two in anything I do.
I can help with creative work like designing and painting a mural or decorating a garden. I can solder and do some basic woodwork.
I used to be a water scout where I learned a great deal of technical skills. Every winter the boats, which were made of metal, had to be maintained. I learned how to remove rust, how to lacquer ships. I know how to maintain woodwork, by sanding and lacquering etc.
At the same waters scouts I led the younger kids for about two years (age group 5 to 7). I learned how to organize fun activities for these children, take care of them and keep them happy and entertained.
During my gap year I had a job as a cleaning lady in a rehabilitation center. I still work as a cleaning lady on the side.
Previous workaway:
My previous workaway experiences include Portugal, Thailand, Norway and Slovenia. In Portugal I helped out on two amazing permaculture farms. In Thailand I taught English to little kids and also helped a very nice lady at her own dog sanctuary.
In Norway I helped with general things around the house and in Slovenia I worked as the chef for five days a week cooking for 7 people.
Other Skills:
I have worked as a bartender.
I have plenty of creative skills. Like painting, drawing and sewing. Some of my creations are in the pictures.
University:
I am bachelor graduate in environmental sciences at Wageningen University. This is a very broad program which teaches an array of skills and knowledge. I have followed many courses from advanced multivariate mathematics to social sciences and philosophy. My special interests lie in soil sciences, geology, hydro-geology and ecology.
I am trained in the scientific method and know how to analyze things critically.Âge
