Beschreibung
Hello!
My name is Mel, and I am a Dutch Canadian. I speak both English and Dutch fluently.
I enjoy being outside and working with animals, especially horses and cattle. I love learning about and working with all sorts of both wild and farm animals. I was born and raised on a hog farm, and participated in 4H. I graduated from an agriculture college (Beef major) and am currently continuing my education. I would love to learn about how different farms/ranches operate throughout Canada and the world.
Some of my hobbies include hiking, snowboarding, horseback riding and woodworking.
I love learning about other people's lifestyles, and would love to give others a glimpse of mine!
In the summer of 2023, I spent 4 months travelling Canada, from BC to Quebec, doing workaway farmstays and living in my car. I enjoyed seeing more of the country I grew up in.
I spent October 2025- March 2026 travelling across Europe. I visited 11 countries, hostelling and doing workaway farmstays. I enjoyed my time backpacking and am excited to return to Europe again in the future!

After making plans that I would come in August, Renae messaged me in May if I would be able to come then as well, which I did. Right when I arrived, I was welcomed by their amazing dogs (I spent a lot of time with the dogs). The family was super kind and welcoming and made me feel right… read more
