Cultural exchange and learning opportunities
We are a really fun group of friends all around 40 years old and a couple of children and pets. In the summer there are always fun people around and we have spontaneous BBQ's beach gatherings, etc. We do drink a beer, but dont expect wild parties. You can either stay alone in the gypsy wagon or come with a (girl)friend.

Help
We bought a farmhouse with a group of friends, 600 meters from the ocean en a beautifull environment with dunes and forrest. Now we are entering the next phase of building. We will construct a 120m2 timber house attached to the farm. I will be building it myself and could use some help. Looking for (semi)experienced builders that want to help me out. It will be a timber frame house with biobased materials. Working hours will be flexible, from 25 to 40 hours a week, depending on your wishes and our needs. The hourly wage we'll offer depends on your skill set, so is to be discussed
Regarding the wage: this depends on your skill set. Ranging from 10 to 25 euro's an hour. Please contact for more info. We will build the house from scratch. So please let me know what your skill set is. Most of it will be timber construction work, but if you have other skills like electrics, plumbing etc let me know.

Accommodation
Gypsy wagon, with composting toilet and we can install an outdoor shower as well. There is a kitchen, fridge, cooking stove. The gypsy wagon is beautifully situated on the back of our 3500m2 land. So lots of privacy. And beautifull views. There are two little horses around as well. In most cases you will cook for yourself, when available you can get veggies from the garden. And you'll definitly be invited over for dinner with one or all of the families every now and then. The accomodation accomodates for one or two people, but then I'd prefer two people that already know each other. The environment is stunning, 10 min walk to the beach, crossing the street and you'll walk into the beautifull dunes and forrest. You'll be amazed how beautifull The Netherlands can be :)
What else ...
If you like the beach, cycling, walking in nature, you will have everything what you'll need around the corner. A visit to Amsterdam will take one hour with public transport.
