  • Description

    My day to day name is Mieke and I am now 60 years old and very healthy, fit and active. I was a volunteer in Paris, France when I was 19 years old and loved it. We ( Me and Janet) have now done two Workaway places in 2024 and I want to go again to France or Greece in 2025.( With or without Janet) I am now at a time in my life that I am free to do so ( My son is 27 and independent). I am a sociable and a hardworking individual. I live in the UK and have done so for 41 year but have the Dutch nationality/EU passport. I am interested in spirituality, religion and the exploration of our souls. I also love nature, sun, science etc. Please ask if you like to know more about me . Mieke

    My friend is called Janet and she's 57 years old and also healthy (She's the red haired one) , fit and active. She would preferably like to go to Greece. We have similar interests and have been friends for over 25+ years. We often go away together for weekends and working together again is similarly enjoyable. She's a moderate smoker, would always smoke outside and is very considerate of non - smokers. We go on long country walks together and both enjoy playing Padel Tennis.

    Please ask us anything should you wish to know more.
