  • Description

    We are Hylke(28) and Carlijn(33), almost 4 years together and living in the north of the Netherlands with our one year old labrador retriever Cody. We are proud to live in Friesland, a different part of the Netherlands with our own Frisian language and culture.
    When we have free time, we are outside; long walks with our dog, training our dog, enjoying and exploring nature, hunting, fishing and cooking meals with the food we gathered ourselfs. And Carlijn loves horseriding (25 years experience).

    Hylke is a mechanical engineer, a welder and also did some contruction work as well. I worked on a dairyfarm in the Netherlands and a cattlefarm in Sweden, wich was also a Workaway experience. I have experience with working with horses but not (yet) riding them. I'm really willing to learn.

    Carlijn is a hotel manager in a small hotel-restaurant in our own village, I love hospitality; making guests feel welcome, cooking them a nice meal, make sure their stay is unforgettable. Since I was 8 years old I ride horses, only for fun and not for competition. To me horseriding is a way to relax.
