Hi there! My name is Merel and I live in Utrecht, near Amsterdam. This spring I have been doing three months of traveling and volunteering in Portugal, Spain, Georgia, Iran and Turkey and it was amazing :) Currently I'm back at my job at a software company. But I'm already dreaming about leaving the Netherlands again! So new plans are being created every day ;P

I started a TEFL course, so in some months I hope to have obtained my certificate to teach English. It's my dream to some day buy a little house overlooking the ocean. To work remotely either as a language teacher or as a software developer and at the samen time starting my own business like a small scale touring agency, hostel or yoga/silence retreat.

Hugs! Merel

vom Host für Workawayer (Merel)

Merel is such a responsible and great person that we had a lovely time together. It was sad she had to leave earlier than we expected. I recommend her to every host.

I had an amazing time at this place! The café is such a lively place and a meeting point for kind and open minded people. The students are super sweet and motivated to learn English. In just a couple of days I started to feel at home in Isparta because the students that frequent the café also liked to hang out during the day. I quickly made many… read more

Sooo good to have Mati around, she is fun, smart, hard worker, with a great sense of humour. I really enjoyed having her at my place, she was very dedicated and attentive in carrying out her tasks.

I had an amazing time with Valentina and the other volunteers Laura and Olli at the Valley of Life :) I won't forget the evenings we enjoyed music, a good fire and interesting talks.

Valentina has a fresh and funny spirit, our laughter echoed through the valley every day ;D And when we found out that I had never learned to properly start driving… read more

vom Host (Experience Galicia and help ...) für Workawayer (Merel)

Nicknamed “The weeding queen of Mer”. Full of passion and enthusiasm she started weeding our garden and veggy patch. The garden completely changed – not an offending weed in sight.
Matilda only stayed for a fortnight but her work was impeccable and not only that, she is friendly, funny and easy to get along with. We enjoyed the time she spend here… read more

I stayed with Barbara and Martin in Mer for a short two weeks in March and had a very good time there.

Next to different other jobs I did a lot of weeding to prepare the budding spring garden for summertime bloom :) I could go on for hours with the weeding, with the sound of birds and the little garden fountains as background music. We also made… read more

It was a real pleasure having Merel here....She is independent, willing to do anything, show initiative, a nature person, nice to animals, creative, etc. She helped me out with a lot of different jobs and made a really nice path on the land with steps and nice sitting spots. Memphis liked her as well (which says a lot! :-) ) and we had lovely… read more

My stay with Renata was a truly wonderful and rewarding full week. Renata is a very genuine person, proud of the way she lives, tolerant to other views on life, no nonsense and easy going with always a good story to tell, as the natural born storyteller that she is.

I cleared a path through the forest, created steps (on the hillside), planted… read more
